Adaptive Reactive Power Control of Doubly Fed Induction Generator By using GWO Algorithm

The most commonly used variable speed wind turbine is based on Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG). To control the reactive power of DFIG-based wind turbines, several methods are suggested that controls the reactive power of the DFIG with slow dynamics and considerable ripples. This paper proposes a new control method based on the adaptive reference model which controls the active and reactive powers of DFIG with high dynamics and low ripples. Given that, the proposed technique has proportional-integral (PI), selecting the proper coefficient for PI controller is significant. To overcome this problem, the grey-wolf algorithm is used to optimize the PI coefficients. The results show that the proposed method gives satisfactory performance with lower overshoots and faster dynamic response.
