Features: Based on the aerodynamic principles of wind turbines and the principles of energy conversion, this book systematically introduces the basic control requirements and strategies for fixed-pitch wind power generators, variable-pitch wind power generators, and variable-speed wind power generators. It also covers the soft grid connection technology, variable-pitch technology, and various control and processing methods for variable-speed wind power generators in achieving optimal power curve tracking. Additionally, it provides a brief introduction to intelligent control technologies based on fuzzy logic and neural networks. Finally, it discusses control solutions for issues such as harmonics introduced by power electronic devices and variable power factors. This book is primarily intended for engineering technicians engaged in wind power generation technology research, as well as for reference use by teachers and graduate students in relevant fields at higher education institutions.
