Wind Turbine Emulator Based on Small-Scale PMSG by Fuzzy FOC

Abstract

This paper presents the modeling, simulation, and emulation of a wind turbine system (WTS) using induction motor (IM). The major purpose is to improve the dynamic behavior of the WTS applying a fuzzy field-oriented controller (FFOC). The realization of the control process and the performance of wind turbine are accomplished in detail using MATLAB/Simulink. The achieved simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the utilized control system and the desired performance of the wind turbine emulator (WTE) for giving essential characteristics of the WTS such as rotor speed and electromagnetic torque.
