Method for maximum power point tracking and verification by modeling a unified wind energy conversion system.

ABSTRACT: Maximum power point tracking in wind turbines is a topic that has attracted many researchers' interest; however, the studies presented are usually carried out only at the simulation level, so they lack a verification in the system through real measurements. On the other hand, the system's modeling is usually quite complex, making it challenging to meet the control objectives. There are unified models in which the system is treated in a generalized way according to various research purposes. This work presents a methodology that simplifies the unified system through a series of dynamic tests that applied to obtained a simplified model much easier to handle without sacrificing the system's dynamic richness. • An alternative approach for a unified wind energy conversion system is established by employing physical dynamic tests applied to the wind set. • A maximum power point tracking is verified by real-time measurements managed by an open-source platform. • Methodology related to electronic instrumentation and programming is described so the tests can be reproduced without much difficulty.
