Particle swarm optimisation technique to improve energy efficiency of doubly-fed induction generators for wind turbines

Wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) require a suitable control to maximise the power generated by wind turbines independently on the wind conditions. Variable-speed fixed-pitch wind turbines with doubly-fed induction generators (DGIG) are used in WECSs for their higher reliability and efficiency...
