Resumo
The Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) is a nonlinear system, highly dependent on a stochastic variable characterized by sudden variations, and subjected to cyclical disturbances caused by operational phenomena. Thus, the quality of a WECS controller is measured by its capacity to deal with unmodeled dynamics, stochastic signals, and periodic, as well as non-periodic disturbances. Since the WECS' objectives can be easily specified in terms of maximum allowable gain in the disturbance-to-output transfer functions, H2 and H∞ methodologies can be good options for designing a WECS stabilizing controller, combining specifications such as: disturbance attenuation, asymptotic tracking, bandwidth limitation, robust stability, and trade-off between performance and control effort. Designs for WECS multivariable feedback controllers based on H2 and H∞ methodologies are presented in this paper. The performances of both controllers are computationally simulated, analyzed and compared in order to identify the advantages and drawbacks of each controller design.
