PURPOSE. Conduct a detailed analysis of existing wind turbines. Analyze the role, place and features of the functioning of wind power plants. Provide various options for generators and schemes for converting wind energy into electricity. Provide recommendations for improving the reliability of wind turbines in smart grids.METHODS. The article was prepared using analytical methods, statistical, theoretical, factorial and technical methods.RESULTS. A fixed speed asynchronous generator used in a wind power conversion system (WECS) without a power converter interface draws a significant portion of the reactive power from the grid. This configuration features simple, reliable operation. Wind turbine asynchronous generator with dual power supply. can improve overall power conversion efficiency by performing maximum power point tracking (MPPT), and an increase in speed of about 30% can improve dynamic performance and increase resilience to system disturbances that are not available for turbine types 1 and 2. The use of full-scale 100% power converters will significantly increase the productivity of SPEV wind energy conversion systems, but will slightly increase the cost of the power converter, up to 7% - 12% of the total equipment cost. By using a large number of pole pairs for all types of permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMG), the turbine gearbox can be removed. This type of wind energy conversion system is more resilient to grid disruptions compared to type 1, 2 and 3 wind systems. The review shows that types 3 and 4 technologies are used to most efficiently sell and recycle wind turbines in electricity markets.CONCLUSION. The article analyzes the features of the functioning of wind power plants operating on the grid. Various options for generators and schemes for converting wind energy into electricity are presented. A detailed analysis of existing wind turbines is provided. Recommendations are given for improving the reliability and efficiency of wind power plants in smart grids.

One of the key issues in the efficient conversion of wind kinetic energy into electricity is the regulation of turbine speed to achieve maximum electrical power generation. The asynchronous generator with full load double AC-DC-AC power converter has not been widely used due to its poor performance in low wind speed. In this paper a method for turbine speed control of induction generator with full-scale double AC-DC-AC power converter to maximize absorbed wind power in the wide wind speed range, using the calculated maximum turbine power as a reference, is proposed. The configuration of an AC-DC-AC converter for connecting an asynchronous generator to the grid, as well as modeling of Pulse Width Modulation converter is presented in detail. Performance of the proposed control concept to maximize the absorbed wind power is verified through the simulation in MATLAB®. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed control concept are discussed.

Abstract The use of an asynchronous generator to power the electrical equipment of the sprinkler is a comprehensive solution that allows you to reduce electrical losses in the supply line. The problem of reactive power compensation for sprinkler machines can be solved by dividing capacitor units into main and additional, the main one is to create the required excitation current in the asynchronous generator, and the additional one is to compensate for the reactive component of the electric motor current. Moreover, an additional unit is installed directly at the outputs of the booster pump to unload the line, and the main capacitor unit is installed near the asynchronous generator.

In this work, a third-order sliding mode controller-based direct flux and torque control (DFTC-TOSMC) for an asynchronous generator (AG) based single-rotor wind turbine (SRWT) is proposed. The traditional direct flux and torque control (DFTC) technology or direct torque control (DTC) with integral proportional (PI) regulator (DFTC-PI) has been widely used in asynchronous generators in recent years due to its higher efficiency compared with the traditional DFTC switching strategy. At the same time, one of its main disadvantages is the significant ripples of magnetic flux and torque that are produced by the classical PI regulator. In order to solve these drawbacks, this work was designed to improve the strategy by removing these regulators. The designed strategy was based on replacing the PI regulators with a TOSMC method that will have the same inputs as these regulators. The numerical simulation was carried out in MATLAB software, and the results obtained can evaluate the effectiveness of the designed strategy relative to the traditional strategy.

Traditional direct field-oriented control (DFOC) techniques with integral-proportional (PI) controllers have undesirable effects on the power quality and performance of variable speed contra-rotating wind power (CRWP) plants based on asynchronous generators (ASGs). In this work, a commanding technique based on the DFOC technique for ASG is presented on variable speed conditions to minimize the output power ripples and the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the grid current. A new DFOC strategy was designed based on third-order sliding mode (TOSM) control to minimize oscillations and the THD value of the current and active power of the ASG; the designed technique decreases the current THD from ASG and does not impose any additional undulations in different parts of ASG. The designed technique is simply implemented on traditional DFOC techniques in variable speed DRWP systems to ameliorate its effectiveness. Also, the results show that by using the designed TOSM controllers, in addition to regulating the active and reactive powers of the ASG-based variable speed CRWP system, the THD current and active power undulations of the traditional inverters can be minimized simultaneously, and the stator current became more like a sinusoidal form.
