The future of fuzzy logic based wind energy conversion system with solid oxide fuel cell and the passions of radical pedagogy

Abstract

This paper presents a novel control system for wind energy conversion system integrated with Solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). In recent years the Double-Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) gaining more popular due to their variable speed and variable pitch control. A dynamic model of SOFC fuel cell integrated with a doubly fed induction generator to maintain grid voltage constant 440 V and 50 Hz. The conventional vector control technique is used in the variable speed DFIG to maintain constant frequency. Existing literature used PI controller based vector control technique for the control of DFIG. In this work, fuzzy logic controller is proposed to decrease total harmonic distortion in grid current. The performance of the system for sudden load changes with PI control and proposed control technique has been obtained and compared, by using MATLAB SIMULINK.
