A Robust Control Scheme Based on ISMC for the Brushless Doubly Fed Induction Machine.

The brushless doubly fed induction machine (BDFM) has great potential in the wind energy generation system because it offers the advantages of higher reliability and maintenance-free operation. In this paper, a mathematical model in the power windings stator flux orientation frame is discussed by taking the rotor flux as the disturbance. Consequently, the control of the BDFM system is implemented by generating suitable control winding currents. Moreover, in order to eliminate the speed error and compensate the system uncertainties caused by the rotor flux and parameter perturbations, an integral sliding mode variable structure controller for the rotor speed is developed, and the reactive power is adjusted by a proportional-integral (PI) controller in the outer-loop. Furthermore, the control winding currents are regulated by the PI control scheme in the inner-loop. The proposed control frame achieves a good static and satisfactory dynamic control performance. Finally, simulation and experimental results are used to verify the correctness and feasibility of the proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
