Systemic optimal control of wind energy system regulating conjointly generator speed and battery recharging current

In this paper is presented an optimal control technology of wind energy system recovering energy in a battery energy accumulator. This control technology makes it possible to regulate the speed of the electric generator at its optimum value, to avoid any over-speed problems leading to strong increases in current in the electrical components of the wind turbine, and subsequently to its destruction. This control technology also makes it possible to maintain the induced electromotive forces in phase with the phase’s currents of the generator to have an additive electromagnetic torque, and in this way the recovered energy will be optimal. This control technology is based on two conversions, one is an Alternative-Continuous conversion performed by an AC-DC converter with IGBTs, and the other is a DC-DC conversion performed by a booster chopper to regulate the voltage of recharges batteries at its nominal value.
