ASSESSMENT OF EFFECTIVENESS OF THE INC ALGORITHM IN MAXIMUM POWER POINT TRACKING OF PMSG WIND GENERATOR

Abstract

Maximizing power generation into the grid is an important issue for
distributed power sources. Wind power sources with randomly varying wind
speeds and different technologies with each generator make it more
complicated to find the maximum power point. The INC algorithm is widely
used to design the maximum power tracking controller in wind power
sources. The article evaluates the efficiency of the INC algorithm in building a
tracking controller for maximum power of wind power using PMSG generator.
The article also simulated and evaluated the efficiency of the algorithm on
Matlab/Simulink tool.
