A New DTC Scheme using Second Order Sliding Mode and Fuzzy Logic of a DFIG for Wind Turbine System

Abstract

This article present a novel direct torque control (DTC) scheme using high order sliding mode (HOSM) and fuzzy logic of a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) incorporated in a wind turbine system. Conventional direct torque control strategy (C-DTC) using hysteresis controllers presents considerable flux and torque undulations at steady state period. In order to ensure a robust DTC method for the DFIG-rotor side converter and reduce flux and torque ripples, a second order sliding mode (SOSM) technique based on super twisting algorithm and fuzzy logic is used in this paper. Simulation results show the efficiency of the proposed method of control especially on the quality of the provided power comparatively to a C-DTC.
