Research on the Compensation Coefficients of the Improved MPPT Control Based on Reduction of Tracking Range

Abstract:

The improved maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control based on the reduction of tracking range could reduce the tracking distance of wind turbine effectively, and improve the tracking efficiency. In this study, the relationship between the compensation coefficient of the improved MPPT control and several factors was investigated. Based on simulations of the simplified wind turbine model, wind conditions, air density and wind turbine parameters were used in the studies to investigate the relationship between the optimum compensation coefficients and these corresponding conditions. It can be indicated that in the fact, compensation coefficient is majorly determined by the tracking targets of MPPT and the dynamic performance of wind turbines that determined by the conditions mentioned above. The results also provide guidance for further studies in this area.
