In this paper we have proposed a non- linear mathematical model for a wind turbine. The objective function maximizes the power of the wind turbine and the constraints are related to the rotor and tower costs. Rotor diameter and hub height are the variables which affect on power of the wind turbine, so we have considered them as decision variable in our mathematical model. By increasing rotor diameter and hub height the power of the turbine will increase but the costs don’t let the infinitive increase in rotor diameter and height. The model applied for a typical case study and the results of solving the model for it have shown in the paper.
The occurrence of Sub-Synchronous Resonance (SSR) phenomena can be attributed to the interaction that takes place between wind turbine generators and series-compensated transmission lines. The Doubly-Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is widely recognized as a prevalent generator form employed in wind energy conversion systems. The present paper commences with an extensive exposition on modal analysis techniques employed in a series of compensated wind farms featuring Doubly Fed Induction Generators (DFIGs). The system model encompasses various components, including the aerodynamics of a wind turbine, an induction generator characterized by a sixth-order model, a second- order two-mass shaft system, a series compensated transmission line described by a fourth-order model, controllers for the Rotor-Side Converter (RSC) and the Grid-Side Converter (GSC) represented by an eighth-order model, and a first-order DC-link model. The technique of eigenvalue-based SSR analysis is extensively utilized in various academic and research domains. The eigenvalue technique depends on the initial conditions of state variables to yield an accurate outcome. The non-iterative approach, previously employed for the computation of initial values of the state variables, has exhibited issues with convergence, lack of accuracy, and excessive computational time. The comparative study evaluates the time-domain simulation outcomes under different wind speeds and compensation levels, along side the eigenvalue analysis conducted using both the suggested and non-iterative methods. This comparative analysis is conducted to illustrate the proposed approach efficacy and precision. The results indicate that the eigenvalue analysis conducted using the proposed technique exhibits more accuracy, as it aligns with the findings of the simulations across all of the investigated instances. The process of validation is executed with the MATLAB program. Within the context of the investigation, it has been found that increasing compensation levels while simultaneously decreasing wind speed leads to system instability. Therefore, modifying the compensation level by the current wind speed is advisable.
The growth in energy consumption and the lack of access to the electricity network in remote areas, rising fossil fuel prices, the importance of using renewable energy in these areas is increasing. The integration of these resources to provide local loads has introduced a concept called microgrid. Optimal utilization of renewable energy systems is one of their most important issues. Due to the high price of equipment such as wind turbine, solar panels and batteries, capacity sizing of the equipment is vital. In this paper, presents an algorithm based on techno-economic for assessment optimum design of a renewable energy system including photovoltaic system, batteries and wind turbine is presented.
Wind energy and its conversion is part of renewable energy resources as cheaper and cleaner energy today even though the initial cost varies from place to place. Most of the government sector always promotes renewable energy with a provision of subsidies as observed worldwide. Wind energy is an actual solution over costlier conventional energy sources. If it is not properly placed and the selection of turbine design is not up to the mark, then investments may require more time to acquire Net Profit Value called as NPV. This research work is focused on the development of mathematical models to optimize the turbine size and locations considering all constraints such as the distance between the turbines, hub height, and investment in internal road and substation cost. Particle-Swarm-Optimization is an intelligent tool to optimize turbine place and size. The database management system is selected as the appropriate data storage platform for before and after optimization simulation. Various plots and excel outputs of .net programming are addressed for the success of optimization algorithms for the purpose of wind turbine placement and WTG design is suggested to manage wind energy such that power system reliability has been improved and the same is monitored through the reliability indices.
The hybrid AC/DC microgrid is considered to be more and more popular in power systems as increasing loads. In this study, it is presented that the hybrid AC/DC microgrid is modeled with some renewable energy sources (e.g. solar energy, wind energy) in the residential of the consumer in order to meet the demand. The power generation and consumption are undergoing a major transformation. One of the tendencies is to integrate microgrids into the distribution network with high penetration of renewable energy resources. In this paper, a new distributed coordinated control is proposed for hybrid microgrid, which could apply to both grid-connected mode and islanded mode with hybrid energy resources and variable loads. The proposed system permits coordinated operation of distributed energy resources to concede necessary active power and additional service whenever required. Also, the maximum power point tracking technique is applied to both photovoltaic stations and wind turbines to extract the maximum power from the hybrid power system during the variation of the environmental conditions. Finally, a simulation model is built with a photovoltaic, wind turbine, hybrid microgrid as the paradigm, which can be applied to different scenarios, such as small-sized commercial and residential buildings. The simulation results have verified the effectiveness and feasibility of the introduced strategy for a hybrid microgrid operating in different modes
