An adaptive control scheme for biomass-based diesel-wind system

Abstract:

Control of autonomous diesel-wind system is difficult because of time-varying dynamical properties, most of them as a result of plant non-stationary, non-linearity and random disturbances. In this paper, the system is composed of a pitch controlled wind turbine with an induction generator connected to an ac bus bar in parallel with a diesel generator set having a synchronous generator. A power plant can generate electric power using biomass from the olive tree in Spain. To have optimal response under disturbances, adaptive schemes appear to be a particularly attractive choice. The recursive least squares method and minimum-variance control algorithm is implemented to design the controller. This paper considers the application of an adaptive control methodology that allows the controller to automatically adjust to changing process variables and thereby provide uniform response over a wide range of operating conditions. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
