Abstract
The power output from wind turbines varies nonlinearly with the wind speed, the speed of the turbine blade tips and the blade pitch angle. At a given pitch angle and wind velocity, maximum power is obtained at a specific turbine angular speed. Since wind speeds typically vary over a wide range, the turbine speed needs to be continuously adjusted so that its power output can be maximized. This paper presents an adapted control scheme based on fuzzy logic approach for adjusting the turbine speed so as to track the maximum power point. The proposed system is tested under various operating conditions to validate its performance.
