Abstract

It is difficult to deal with the variable speed constant frequency (VSCF) wind turbine systems due to the stochastic characteristics and the pneumatic effects of wind. In this paper, a new pitch controller based on generalized predictive control theory is designed to improve the power-output quality of variable speed constant frequency wind turbines. An application to a 300MW wind turbines is given, and simulation results show that the proposed method is effective in wind speed interference suppression and constant out power.
