Advanced Control for Wind Energy Conversion Systems with Flywheel Storage Dedicated to Improving the Quality of Energy

In this article, we present two techniques of commands DTC (direct torque control) and DPC (direct power control), applied to in the system for converting wind energy with storage. The use of the wind generator is based on a double fed induction Generator (DFIG) where the stator is connected directly to the network and the rotor is connected to the network through the power converter. The Flywheel Energy Storage System (FESS) based on a flywheel, an induction machine (IM) and an electronic power converter is associated with the wind generator via the DC bus. The two converters side DFIG and the (FESS) are controlled by the DTC. The three-level converter side electricity grid which ensures constant DC bus voltage is controlled by the DPC. In the literature, this control strategy has been frequently used for the two levels converter. The direct control of these systems has purpose to eliminate the block of pulse width modulation and loops of regulations internal controlled variables. The use of switching table makes the system more efficient from the technical and economic view.
