Above Modelling and Adaptive Control of a Double Winded Induction Generator

Abstract

The paper deals with the modelling and control of a double winded induction generator. The controlled process is an induction generator with distinct excitation winding. At the generator's terminal is connected a load (electrical consumer). There are presented the results obtained by using a minimum variance adaptive control system. The main goal of the control structure is to keep the generator output (terminal voltage) constant by controlling the excitation voltage from the distinct winding. The study cases in the paper are for the validation of the reduced order model of induction generator (5th order model) used only to design the adaptive controller. There is also validated the control structure. There were considered variations of the mechanical torque.
