Tamil Nadu. India Abstract In this research paper an energy system composed of three energy conversion devices namely, photovoltaic panels, a wind turbine, and a battery is proposed. This controller directs power to a fixed voltage D bus. The fixed voltage bus supplies the load, while the excess power is directed to the batteries. Simulation and control of a hybrid PVwind generator system connected to the load are presented in this paper. Every major component of the system is modeled, and then different control strategies are applied to the system. To improve the performance of the system under different environmental conditions. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) of the photovoltaic system and blade angle pitch control of wind turbines are included. Keywords: MPPT, Hybrid Wind Solar, Maximum Energy Extraction, FL. I. Introduction In the growing industrialization and domestics, power demand is increasing enormously. To maintain the green environment we have to generate power from the various renewable energy sources in environment friendly manner. In present the bulk ac power transmission are not economic and also complicate to control the power flow. To overcome this problems wind turbine and photovoltaic generators are used. The proposed hybrid model is most suitable for all weather conditions. And also, it is very safe working atmosphere with the hybrid model. Wind and solar energy is unsteady and unpredictable, and harnessed in relatively small quantities spread over a large area. If it is not properly controlled, the power output of a wind farm and PV array could too small percentage only. In this paper permanent magnet synchronous generator is used with variable speed control employed [1]. The flux in the generator is controlled by field controlled method, and speed Vs torque characteristics controlled by PI controller. Similarly, another one power produced by PV panel. In this

Because, the power produced in both method are not equal. Figure 1: Block diagram of Proposed Hybrid model. In this proposed model two groups are presented. First group is permanent magnet synchronous wind generator and it is connected to A/D converter and common D-link. On the other hand, second one is Photovoltaic (PV) array and it is connected to D/D converter and common D link. The maximum point power tracking of generator and PV array is done by MPPT algorithms. The feedback is taken from both power generator and also from common D-link as an input to the power management algorithm block. This is very easy and convenient method for controlling the generator and D link compared with existing method II. Modeling of Wind Turbine Generally, wind turbines are two basic configurations according to the shaft arrangement types are horizontal axis (HAWM) and vertical axis wind machines (VAWM). Presently, most wind machines being used are the horizontal-axis type due to heavier and less expensive rotor compare with VAWM. And also VAWMs are not economically competitive with HAWMs. In this paper horizontal axis permanent magnet synchronous wind generator is implemented [2]. The basic equation for electric power generated by a wind turbine is 1 3 P r = 2 ρ sv (1.1) Where P = electric power output from a specific wind generator V= wind velocity (meters/second) p density of air at turbine blades S =Surface swept of wind turbine The power contained in the wind is not fully extracted by a wind turbine. This is due to losses incurred in the energy conversion process, also because some of the air is pushed aside by the rotor and it is passing the blade without generating power. The relationship with power recovered and available power is known as power reactivity coefficient p. Here output power is P 1 2 Ω 3 5 t t = p pπr 3 (1.2) Ω t λ λ = R (1.3) V

A typical curve of p versus is shown in Fig 2. The maximum value of power is occurred at a specific speed ratio. Hence, the natural wind is always not constant, and it is necessary to adapt the shaft speed to find the maximum power gain point. Eventually, the maximum value of power point in permanent magnet synchronous generator can be transferred from the air stream to the wind turbine to produce the maximum electrical power by using vector control method. Figure 2: urve for p ersus Fig 2 represent different speed of natural air stream driven by the permanent magnet synchronous wind generator produced maximum power condition characteristics. The mechanical equation for permanent magnet synchronous generator is given by dω mec g mec = J + dt t vis Ω mec = M.

Vector ontrol and MPPT Figure 4: MPPT algorithm Algorithm Operation Fig.3. shows that the goal of MPPT and vector control method is to find maximum power point and operate at optimal is achieved. In the Fig.4 proposed maximum power point algorithm operated at without measurement values of wind speed. The permanent magnet synchronous machine is supplied the three phase PWM inverter to control required flux and torque with speed as a feedback taken from machine. IV. Modeling of PV Panel In this module the solar cells is a fundamental power conversion unit of a photovoltaic system. Fig 5 represents the equivalent circuit of a PV module system.

The maximum power tracking point is achieved from this curve and its maximum depends on the maximum polarization of the solar cell module [3]. I = I I I (3.1) p L D Rsh I I I V R I V R I s. s. p = L 0{exp[ ] 1} (3.2) VT R sh Where, I =hoto current L I =iode current D I Rsh =hunt current Normally, voltage output is based on solar irradiation and temperature of the cells. The fuzzy logic controller (FL) is added to obtain the voltage for which the peak value of power achieved from PV cells. P and V are used as seven input variables of the fuzzy controllers. The output variable is an increment value which increases or decreases the voltage reference of the PV array. Then the PWM duty cycle of the boost converter connected to the D-link. V. Energy Storage and ontrolling An extracted energy from the hybrid system is needed to store in the battery for the continuous supply to the D load even though the energy sources are not available in all the environmental cases. The energy is stored with the help of buck-boost converter. It acts as a buck converter during storing and boost converter during the supplying the load through D-link. In that proportional integral controller is used for controlling energy storing in the batteries. The ripple free current and constant voltage V B is achieved by the proposed control scheme as shown in the fig.7. Figure 7: PI Energy Storage ontrol

The various control strategies and performances were studied by simulink software [5]. The MPPT and vector control maximum power point are tracked at constant wind speed shown in Fig 8. Figure 8: MPPT at onstant Wind with Wind Power If the wind speed is changed, the tracking of maximum point stabilization of the shaft speed and windmill power around the maximum power operating point is achieved by the proposed algorithm. The Fig.9 shows the Vector control of the permanent magnet synchronous generator and MPPT methods direct the windmill to operate suitably at optimal power.

In order to evaluate the performance output of PV cells in the MPPT - FL strategy is used. Fig.11 presents the power point tracking around its maximum value for a constant irradiance. The FL response allows the maximum power to be achieved quickly when compared to other methods. Fig.12 shows how the energy storage is managed in batteries and control the performance output of the converter at variable load. Figure 12: Power Output of PV Panels from MPPT-FL controller. Figure 13: D-D onverter D-Link urrent VII. onclusion and Future Scope The simple and most efficient integrated windmill with permanent magnet synchronous generator and PV solar cell system are proposed with MPPT algorithm. The advantages of MPPT algorithm are robustness and the easy to implement when compared to the several maximum power point tracking methods available [4]-[7]. It also facilitates to evaluate the wind mill features easily and accurately. Also, this hybrid generation system takes a different merit that the wind-pv power naturally complement one another to certain amount, there by facilitating continuous output power for full day to the load. In future the fuel cell also taken in to the account to achieve not only the continuous supply but also better battery life.
