Abstract

In this study, a demanded power point tracking (DPPT) control algorithm was designed for the application of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) modern control algorithms. The proposed DPPT control algorithm has been newly implemented as a multiple reference trajectory method for applying an MIMO control algorithm without mode switches. Dynamic simulations and wind tunnel experiments were performed using a scaled wind turbine to validate the proposed control algorithm. The wind speeds were 4.6 and 7.3 m/s, the average wind speeds corresponding to region 2 and region 3, respectively, with a turbulence intensity of 10%. Both sets of results demonstrated satisfactory performance for tracking the power commands transmitted from the wind farm controller. Furthermore, the proposed control algorithm was compared and validated with a DPPT control algorithm proposed in previous studies, and its improved control performance and validity were confirmed.
