Sumario:The purpose of this study is to design a real-time current predictive control for a wind energy conversion system (WECS) using a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG). A wind emulator and a test bench for assessing control strategies were conceptualized. The DSPACE DS1104 board served as the foundation for the design of a wind emulation system. While power is indirectly regulated via currents, the latter is controlled directly by current predictive control. Using discrete time, the control suggests the appropriate voltages to the converter for each sample period to attain the specified set points and control the power. The field-oriented control is employed to ensure that the two components, axes d and q, are decoupled. The present predictive control was established to regulate a DFIG’s active and reactive capabilities. To begin, a thorough examination of the WECS is discussed. Following that, a comprehensive description of predictive control laws based on reference frame orientation is offered. As a result, a simulation was done using Matlab/Simulink environments to assess the performance and resilience of the proposed control model. The predictive current control was then experimentally validated on a test bench to demonstrate its efficacy. The observed results reveal an astonishing correlation between simulations and experiments.
