Doubly Fed Induction Generators: Control for Wind Energy

By Edgar N Sanchez, Riemann Ruiz-Cruz, Edgar N. Sanchez

This comprehensive book addresses the modeling and design of controllers for the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used in wind energy applications. Focusing on the use of nonlinear control techniques, the text discusses the main features and advantages of the DFIG, describes key theoretical fundamentals and the DFIG mathematical model, and develops controllers using inverse optimal control, sliding modes, and neural networks. It also devises an improvement to add robustness in the presence of parametric variations, as well as details the results of real-time implementations.
