This paper concerns a three-phase self-excited induction generator used for autonomous power generation. It presents a robust control strategy which makes it possible to maintain the frequency quasi constant during the voltage regulation without any control loop on this variable. This strategy, which also prevents the machine disengagement, uses as power converter a simple dimmer. The obtained theoretical and/or numerical results are validated on a laboratory test bench that allows the analysis of this control law effectiveness.

The generation of electric power using self excited induction generation (SEIG) is a viable option in remote and rural areas where grid electricity is not available. The generated voltage and frequency of these machines, however, varies with varying loads. This characteristic can be resolved either by adjusting the values of the excitation capacitance or by controlling the prime mover speed. Further, in a single-point constant power application, where the machines deliver a fixed amount of power, the electronic load controller (ELC) can be used to switch-in or switch-out a dump load whenever the consumer load decreases or increases respectively. This paper presents a detailed analysis and the design of a microcontroller based SEIG -ELC system intended for stand-alone pico hydro power generation. The simulated performance of the controller is supplemented by experimental results.

This paper presents a neural network based self-tuning fuzzy PI-PD control scheme for robust speed control of induction motor. The PID controller is being widely used in industrial applications. When continuously used long time, the electric and mechanical parameters of induction motor change, degrading the performance of PID controller considerably. This paper re-analyzes the fuzzy controller as conventional PID controller structure, and proposes a neural network based self-tuning fuzzy PI-PD controller whose scaling factors are adjusted automatically. Proposed scheme is simple in structure and computational burden is small ...

A robust speed control algorithm under disturbances and reference change is developed using the self tuning control method in order to control induction motors. The method incorporates the concepts of the well known internal model principle and the annihilator polynomial. The effectiveness of the method is evaluated through the speed control experimental results of an induction motor for refernce change and arbitrary distrbance.

Since the West Sea experiences a big difference in tides, the output power of the small marine hydroelectric power plant varies with the tide. When an induction generator is used here for small hydroelectric power, the reactive power capacitor should be installed at the generator main bus to compensate for the changes in power. As such, the sizing method for the power compensation of the induction generator is reviewed and an optimal method for compensation is suggested. The self-excitation minimum capacitor capacity method, which prevents high voltages, and the power factor automatic control method, which retains a power factor of greater than 90% are reviewed. The compensation effect of reactive power is confirmed through a case study.

The Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller is still the most widespread control strategy in the industry. PID controllers have gained popularity due to their simplicity, better control performance and excellent robustness to uncertainties. This paper presents the optimal tuning of a PID controller for domestic induction heating systems with a series resonant inverter for controlling the induction heating power. The objective is to design a stable and superior control system by tuning the PID controller with a derivative filter (PIDF) through Fuzzy logic. The paper also compares the performance of the Fuzzy PIDF controller with that of a Ziegler-Nichols PID controller and a fine-tuned PID controller with a derivative filter. The system modeling and controllers are simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results obtained show the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed Fuzzy PID controller with a derivative filter.

This paper presents a novel design of a self tuning PI controller of induction motor using fuzzy control. In this approach, the fuzzy tuning of a PI controller gains is achieved through fuzzy rules deduced from many robustness simulation tests applied to several induction motors, for a variety of operating conditions such as response to speed command from standstill, step load torque application and speed variations, with nominal parameters and an changed rotor resistance, self inductance and inertia. Simulation results on a speed controller of induction motor are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed gain tuner. And this controller is better than the fixed gains one in terms of robustness, even under great variations of operating conditions and load disturbance.

This paper presents a simple method for determining the minimum value of capacitance required for initiating self excitation in three-phase self-excited induction generator. Based on the steady-state equivalent circuit model, this paper presents simple and direct method to find the minimum capacitance requirement under R-L load. Using the loop impedance and nodal admittance. the minimum capacitance is determined by self excitation condition. These computed values can be used to predict practically the minimum value of the terminal voltage required for self-excitation. To maintain a constant terminal voltage, a method for determining the frequency, terminal capacitance, and exciting reactance is also described.

The value of this paper is to use reduced size apparatuses to perform field measurement in order to identify and validate that the harmonic-current effects are due to the presence of self-excitation capacitance connected at stator's terminals of the studied SEIG. This paper has presented the measured electrical quantities of a three-phase $\Delta$-connected wind induction generator (WIG) under sudden connection and disconnection of resistive loads. An intelligent power-system recorder/monitor has been employed to measure three-phase voltages and currents of the studied system at the terminals of the studied WIG and the load. The measured electrical quantities have been analyzed. Total harmonic distortion (THD) of current using cumulative probability density function has been employed to determine the penetration of harmonic distortion at load side. The results show that the harmonic currents generated by the studied WIG can be severely amplified by the connected self-excited capacitance at the stator's terminals.
