Figure 5 shows a detailed representation of the back-to-

generator-side converter changes the generator terminal voltage
to a dc voltage which is converted to a three-phase voltage by
the grid-side converter.

III. CONTROL ALGORITHM
Figure 7 shows the control techniques used in this paper to
simulate the wind turbine system. There are five control
parameters that control the speed and flux of the generator, the
active power delivered to the grid, dc bus voltage and reactive
power delivered to the grid. As shown, the control system
consists of five separate control loops. The ultra capacitor and
its converter are used to control the output power of the
inverter. They regulate the output power delivered to the grid.
The reference output power of the wind turbine system is
compared with incoming wind power of the generator and if
the output power is more than reference it is stored in the ultra
capacitor and if it is less than it the stored energy in the
3349 978-1-4244-1766-7/08/$25.00 2008
capacitor will release to compensate the lack of the input
power.

Figure 7. Control techniques for controlling the wind turbine system.
In order to catch the maximum power of the wind, TSR
must be equal to the optimal value. This means that we have to
adjust the speed of the turbine to the optimal value. Equation
(14) shows the optimal value for the speed in order to have the
optimal value for TSR.

Based on (14) electrical torque can be used to control the

Where is the initial angle of the stator current. Equation (17)
is the base equation for vector control of the PMSG.
di
i can be used to prevent the machine from suffering over
voltage by controlling the flux on d axis.
The grid side converter is used to adjust the voltage of the
capacitor constant based on (13).
The reactive power is controlled by adjusting the
do
i of the
inverter.
The control loop of the super capacitor adjust the power based
on the average power provided its voltage is sufficient to
support the load. If the average power is more than coming
power, it supplies power to the grid, and if it is lower, it saves
the power. Therefore, the output power is always constant.
IV. SIMULATION RESULTS
In this part, the control algorithm is simulated to evaluate
the performance of the system. The machine parameters is
given in the table below in PU.
Table I. Generator specifications

Lds .00195 Unsaturated

The simulation results are given in figures 8-11. Figure 8
shows the wind speed variation during 10s. The average wind
speed is 10.5 m/s. This average power is 0.9 PU. Figure 9
shows the output power of the wind turbine system. As shown,
the oscillations of the input power are smoothed and the
average output power is the same as that of input power. Figure
10 shows the super capacitor output power. When the power is
negative, the super capacitor stores the extra wind power, and
when it is positive, the super capacitor releases the power to
keep the output power constant.

V. CONCLUSION
This study investigates the application of super capacitors
in wind turbine system for power smoothing. A control
algorithm is designed based on the dynamic of each part of the
wind turbine system. The wind turbine system with purposed
algorithm is simulated. The results show the significant
improvement of the wind turbine output power. With the
improvement of the super capacitor technology, the application
of the super capacitors in wind turbine system as an energy
storage will be unavoidable and more than ever.
