Abstract
This paper introduces a sliding-mode-based extremum-seeking algorithm aimed at generating optimal set-points of wind turbines in wind farms. A distributed extremum-seeking control is directed to fully utilize the captured wind energy by taking into consideration the wake and aerodynamic properties between wind turbines. The proposed approach is a model-free algorithm. Namely, it is independent of the model selection of the wake interaction between the wind turbines. The proposed distributed scheme consists of two parts. A dynamic consensus algorithm and an extremum-seeking controller based on sliding-mode theory. The distributed consensus algorithm is exploited to estimate the value of the total power produced by a wind farm. Subsequently, sliding-mode extremum-seeking controllers are intended to cooperatively produce optimal set-points for wind turbines within the farm. Scheme performance is tested via extensive simulations under both steady and varying wind speed and directions. The presented distributed scheme is compared with a centralized approach, in which the problem can be seen as a multivariable optimization. The results show that the employed scheme is able to successfully maximize power production in wind farms.
