Description and contextualization of the subject

In this course the concepts of vector control applied to the control of three types of machines applied to wind generators will be shown.

Thus, the models of the induction machines (squirrel cage and DFIG) and the synchronous machine will be shown.

In addition to the models of the machines, the model of the wind turbine and the mechanical system affecting the control system will be shown.

Finally, the control of these machines as wind generators will be carried out starting from the models previously mentioned and adjusting the controllers for a correct operation.

The systems will be implemented using Matlab/Simulink.



In the event that the sanitary conditions prevent the realization of a teaching activity and / or face-to-face evaluation, a non-face-to-face modality will be activated of which the students will be informed promptly.

Ordinary call: orientations and renunciation

CONTINUOUS EVALUATION SYSTEM

The professor will assign a project to the student that will be developed in the laboratory. The elaboration process and the results will be used to evaluate the subject.

An exam will be conducted and averaged with the project. It will be mandatory to get a 4 in the exam to make the average.

FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM

According to article 8 of the Regulations, regulating the assessment of students in the official degrees, the students shall have the right to be evaluated by means of the FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM, independently of the fact that has or has not participated in the CONTINUOUS EVALUATION SYSTEM. In order to do so, students must present the following information written to the teacher in charge of the subject the renunciation of the CONTINUOUS EVALUATION within a period of 9 weeks from the beginning of the term. In this case, the student will be assessed with a single final exam, which will include a practical part, which will comprise 100% of the grade. Final grade= 0.85*EX+0.15*PL. In order to pass you must obtain at least 5 points out of 10 in both the written test (EX) and the practical test(PL).



RENUNCIATION

According to article 12 of the Regulations, regulating the assessment of students in the official degrees, in the case of CONTINUOUS EVALUATION, the student may renounce the call for proposals within a period which, as a minimum, will be up to one month before the end of the teaching period of the corresponding subject. This waiver must be submitted in writing to the teacher responsible for the subject. In the case of FINAL EVALUATION, a no presentation to the official examination will result in the automatic waiver of the corresponding call. Renunciation of the call will result in the qualification of not presented.

Extraordinary call: orientations and renunciation

The criteria to pass each activity as the weighting of the grade will be the same as in the ordinary call.

RENUNCIATION

A no presentation to the official examination will result in the automatic waiver of the corresponding call. Renunciation of the call will result in the qualification of not presented.
