Maximum Energy Output of a DFIG Wind Turbine Using an Improved MPPT-Curve Method

A new method is proposed for obtaining the maximum power output of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbine to control the rotor- and grid-side converters. The efficiency of maximum power point tracking that is obtained by the proposed method is theoretically guaranteed under assumptions...
