Genetic Algorithm–Optimized Cascaded Fractional-Order PI Control for Performance and Power Quality Enhancement of a 1.5 MW DFIG-Based MRWT

Résumé fourni par la source

This paper presents an intelligent cascaded fractional-order proportional–integral (CFO-PI) control strategy optimized using a genetic algorithm (GA) for a 1.5 MW DFIG-based multi-rotor wind turbine (MRWT) system. The primary objective is to enhance operational performance and power quality. The proposed method is evaluated against the conventional direct power control scheme using a traditional PI regulator (DPC-PI) to demonstrate its effectiveness. Comparative analysis shows substantial performance improvements achieved by the CFO-PI approach. Specifically, active power ripple is reduced by 61.71% compared to DPC-PI, resulting in smoother power delivery and improved grid compatibility. In addition, the steady-state error of active power decreases by 72.60%, indicating improved tracking accuracy. For reactive power, a 52.03% reduction in ripple is observed, while current ripple is reduced by approximately 56%, reflecting enhanced waveform quality. These results highlight the CFO-PI controller’s capability to maintain better power quality and steady-state performance relative to conventional DPC-PI. Overall, the GA-optimized CFO-PI controller provides a promising alternative for improving dynamic performance and power quality in DFIG-based MRWT systems.
