Genetically Optimized Pitch Angle Controller of a Wind Turbine with Fuzzy Logic Design Approach

An important engineering challenge is the design of a wind turbine’s pitch angle controller. The dependability, safety, and power output maximization of a wind turbine are all impacted by this controller. In this study, a 2 MW doubly fed induction generator wind turbine’s blade angle controller design with a novel fuzzy logic controller is tested in a simulated environment. The evolutionary algorithm technique is used to optimize the fuzzy logic controller with three inputs. A genetic algorithm is used to optimize the specified pitch angle controller for a number of coefficients. After the optimization process, the controller’s performance is assessed in terms of power output, overshoot, and steady-state error characteristics.
