Estimation of Wind Turbine Generator Model Parameters using Artificial Intelligence Methods

Year 2016, Volume: 4 Issue: 2, 51 - 57, 30.09.2016

Abstract

Modelling (in a broad sense) is an essential tool for research in all areas and represents a scientifically based method for assessing the performance of systems and processes used for making engineering decisions. This applies in particular to the field of management systems, where the foundation is making decisions based on the information received.

The existing and newly designed systems effectively examined by using the mathematical models (analytical and spoofing) which allows identifying some constant parameters that are involved in the differential equations representing the dynamics of the system analyzed. Such systems may come from a broad scientific spectrum, for example from economics and biology from communication and weather forecasting.

The present paper investigates some Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods identifying the parameters of a dynamical system. Two types of methods are compared - 'evolution' and 'particle swarm' intelligence. First, for this purpose, a system simulation model generating data (for the two methods of identification in order to compare afterwards the results) is used. After that, Genetic (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms are applied to estimate the wind turbine generator model parameters. The results of both methods are compared in terms of their accuracy and performance. The software for the simulation and AI process has been developed using MATLAB™.
