In this article, the parameters of the proportional-integral (PI) controller of the wind turbine (WT) emulator, i.e., proportional and integral gain of the PI controller, are optimized using a black widow optimization algorithm (BWOA). The proposed system is developed and analyzed using MATLAB/Simulink environment. The performance of the BWOA optimized PI controller is compared with a BAT algorithm, particle swarm optimization, and genetic algorithm optimized PI controller to measure the effectiveness of the proposed control system. The developed system is tested for different operating conditions such as static wind speed settings, static pitch angle conditions, step-change in wind speed settings, and step-change in pitch angle settings. Finally, the proposed system is realized in real-time by hardware experimentations. The results of the experimentation are compared with simulation results as well. The presented simulation and hardware result shows good agreement, which confirms the effectiveness of the proposed method. Thereby, the proposed optimization-based PI-controlled wind emulator can be recommended for emulating the characteristics of any type of WT with a low-cost system.

In this paper, a novel adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)-based control technique optimized by Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm for speed control of matrix converter (MC)-fed brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is presented. ANFIS is considered to be one of the most promising technologies for control of electrical drives fed by MC. Optimizing the training parameters of ANFIS, to improve its performance, is still being considered by several researchers recently. Parameters of the online ANFIS controller such as learning rate (η), forgetting factor (λ) and steepest descent momentum constant (α) are optimized by using the proposed algorithm. For the purpose of comparison, proportional integral derivative controller, fuzzy logic controller, PSO-ANFIS and BAT-ANFIS are considered. Set point tracking performances of the proposed system are carried out at various operating points for an industrial BLDC motor operating at a maximum rated speed of 380 rpm and torque of 6.4 N m. Time domain specifications such as rise time, settling time, peak time, steady-state error and peak overshoot in the presence and absence of load torque disturbances are presented. Time integral performance measures such as integral square error, integral absolute error, and integral time multiplied absolute error are analyzed for various operating conditions. Speed fluctuation in the output of BLDC motor is dependent on the source current harmonics of the inverter/converter. To illustrate this, total harmonic distortion (THD) analysis is carried out for the existing PWM inverter and the proposed MC, and it is proved that MC results in reduced THD, as compared to PWM inverter. Simulation results confirm that the proposed controller outperforms the other existing control techniques under various set speed and torque conditions. Statistical analysis is effectively carried out to prove the effectiveness of the proposed controller. Experimental analysis is performed to validate the performance of the proposed control scheme.

In this study, fuzzy supervised online coactive neuro-fuzzy inference system (CANFIS)-based rotor position controller is presented for brushless DC (BLDC) motor. An online learning algorithm is employed for updating premises and consequent parameters of the CANFIS controller. The rotor position control of BLDC motor is simulated using MATLAB/Simulink Toolbox. The dynamic response of the BLDC motor with proposed controller is measured for standard sinusoidal reference input. The effectiveness of the proposed controller performance is compared with fuzzy proportional–integral derivative controller, adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system controller and supervised recurrent fuzzy neural network controller. The proposed controller is able to solve the problem of non-linearities and uncertainty due to reference input changes of BLDC motor and guarantees fast and accurate dynamic response to a remarkable steady-state performance. Also, experimental hardware results are presented to demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed control scheme using field programmable gate array chip. Experimental results show that the proposed control scheme can achieve a more favourable tracking performance without the chattering phenomena in the control effort.
