1 Introduction
With the depletion of resources and environment newenergy has become a focus for global economic growthand sustainable development Extensive research has beenfocused to advance the technologies of power generationsystems based on various renewable sources such as solarenergy geothermal biomass fuel cell and industrial wasteheat [1ndash4] Wind power is gaining momentum because it ispollution-free and abundant and moves to small-scale andlarge-scale development [5]
Small-scale wind turbine system is flexible and less invest-ment It is widely used to provide power for areas with loosesettlement and abundant wind resources [6 7] However thefluctuation and intermittence of wind frequently result insystem power to be imbalanced Currently battery is usedto address such imbalance But the lifespan of a battery is2-3 years much shorter than a generator or a wind turbinechallenging the cost of wind power generation Usuallythe battery is in the state of overcharge and discharge [8ndash10] Limited by voltage of battery wind turbine cannot be
employed to the best Thus a low power coefficient and theshort life of the battery are crucial problems faced with small-scale wind power generators [11ndash13]
Wind energy capture has always been a hot issue inresearches on wind power generation Two widely acceptedmethods are tip speed ratio control andpower signal feedbackcontrol [11 14ndash20]The best tip speed ratio and themaximumpower can be concluded from the power curve provided byproducers The controlling target is clear and the algorithmis easy But the capture power does not equal effective outputpower because of losses in mechanical drive and generatorin particular under large load Loss in generator will makethe effective output power derived from the power curveAnother is the hill-climbing searching method based onthe generator output power It can realize the maximumeffective output power control but it cannot achieve themaximum power point tracking speed and the minimummechanical impact at the same time A focus on searchingspeed will unavoidably enhance the mechanical impact Afocus on tracking accuracymay lead to a slow searching speed[19 21ndash26] The abovementioned methods fail to consider

the nonlinear large inertia and fluctuated nature of the windgenerator system Therefore this paper hopes to optimizethe maximum effective output power and turbine speed andfurther optimize the maximum output power point trackingby constructing a wind generator system loss model
In fact wind turbines cannot always be working on themaximum power tracking Because of the dynamic change ofload and battery thewind generator systemmust be equippedwith maximum power tracking and the accurate powercontrolling function To improve the lifetime of the batterythese two functions are corresponding to two operationalmodes of the maximum power tracking and the accuratepower controlling Given that the inertia of wind turbinesresults in a slow reaction this paper adopts the feedbacklinearization to design the tracking controller in order toenhance the dynamic tracking speed As mode conversionis frequent and excess power during the conversion willovercharge the battery [27] this paper proposes a dual-modedynamic coordination strategy based on auxiliary load
2 Principles of WGS with Battery
TheWGS with battery storage is shown in Figure 1 includingwind turbine permanent magnet generator uncontrolledrectifier Buck converter battery storage and auxiliary loadBuck converter is for adjusting the turbine speed and chang-ing the operation of the wind turbine Battery storage systemmanages the charge and discharge by Buck-boost converterAuxiliary load is mainly for dynamic coordination of modeconversion and for eliminating the excess power duringmodeconversion
Because of the dynamic change of the wind speed andthe load power the system is able to operate two operationalmodes of the maximum power tracking and power control-ling The maximum power tracking is improved on the basisof traditional capture power curve The tracking strategy isbased on effective generator output power When the outputpower exceeds the load or the maximum charge power of thebattery the systemwill switch to the power controllingmode
The coordinating controller selects the operational modeof the wind generator system according to real-time windspeed load and the state of the battery Given the largeinertia and the slow response this paper proposes a dual-mode dynamic coordination strategy based on auxiliary loadto effectively address the imbalanced power during modeconversion

4 Maximum Effective GeneratorPower Optimization
Wind energy capture is decided by power curve provided byproducers But the power curve only indicates the capturepower of the turbine rather than effective generator outputpower As a matter of fact losses in turbines do influencethe effective capture power and should be considered in theoptimized solution to achieve the effective output power andthe turbine speed
The turbine loss power and generator loss power areexpressed as
119875119908loss = 119879loss120596 + 119875cu + 119875Fe (14)

Figure 3 shows the power curve of 5 kW turbines (pro-vided by producers) and the relationship between the gener-ator output power and the optimized turbine speed As thewind velocity increases the wind turbine mechanical power(more load) is deviated from the optimized generator outputpower and both curves have the same trend
5 Dual-Mode Power Control for WGS
The maximum effective power tracking mode (Mode I) andpower regulation mode (Mode II) are shown in Figure 4The coordinating controller selects operational modes andcompletes mode conversion Given the big inertia of theturbine and the slow response to the mode conversionin particular when it switches from Mode I to Mode IIthere is unavoidably excessive powerTherefore a dual-modedynamic coordination strategy based on auxiliary load isproposed to reduce the influence of conversion
Mode I The battery is in the safety area The voltage is119880119887isin [119880min 119880max] and the current is 119894
119887isin [119894bdmax 119894bcmax]
The turbine works in the maximum effective output powercapture zone The battery storage system in accordance withthe change of thewind speed and load power operates at Buckcharge or Boost discharge that is

1 second and that the actual output power equals the effectivegenerator output power The variation of the current inFigure 9 proves that the coordinating controller can rapidlycontrol the battery storage systemrsquos charge-discharge modebased on the output current and load current of the generatorand can ensure the constancy of the load power
Before the system startup (within 20 sec) the load power(250W) is totally provided by battery and Buck-boost oper-ates in boost mode The wind turbines start up at 20 s andthe wind speed is 5ms generatorrsquos output power is 950Wexceeding the load power of 700W Battery storage systemoperates at the Buck charge mode and rapidly charges thebattery by 550W The voltage of the battery rises to 175Vwithin 100 s (Figure 8 shows the battery voltage) At 150 s thegeneratorrsquos maximum output power reaches 2750W the loadpower increases to 1200W and the battery charge power is850W For this purpose the ascending range of the batteryvoltage is inferior to the ascending range of voltage whenthe wind speed was 6ms At 394 s the wind speed drops to5ms and the effective output is insufficient to provide the950W load power supply the coordinating controller rapidlychanges the battery storage systemmode (Boost) and suppliesthe insufficiency by 250W power making the battery voltage173V At 420 s the load power drops to 250W and the batterystorage system alters the workingmode to Buck chargemodethen the battery voltage once more rises to 175V As for theabrupt change of the battery voltage during the operationprocess it is because the battery voltage is influenced bycharge-discharge current
As shown in Figure 7 the generator maximum outputpower tracking is achieved by making the generatorrsquos opti-mized speed as the tracking object Comparing the optimizedgenerator speed and the speed based on power curve it canbe seen that the two vary little at 5ms and 6ms but thegenerator speed increased by 3 rpm and 6 rpm at 7ms and75ms compared to the speed based on power curve therebyit proves the necessity of the wind turbines speed controllingstrategy based on generatorrsquos loss

the nonlinear large inertia and fluctuated nature of the windgenerator system Therefore this paper hopes to optimizethe maximum effective output power and turbine speed andfurther optimize the maximum output power point trackingby constructing a wind generator system loss model
In fact wind turbines cannot always be working on themaximum power tracking Because of the dynamic change ofload and battery thewind generator systemmust be equippedwith maximum power tracking and the accurate powercontrolling function To improve the lifetime of the batterythese two functions are corresponding to two operationalmodes of the maximum power tracking and the accuratepower controlling Given that the inertia of wind turbinesresults in a slow reaction this paper adopts the feedbacklinearization to design the tracking controller in order toenhance the dynamic tracking speed As mode conversionis frequent and excess power during the conversion willovercharge the battery [27] this paper proposes a dual-modedynamic coordination strategy based on auxiliary load
2 Principles of WGS with Battery
TheWGS with battery storage is shown in Figure 1 includingwind turbine permanent magnet generator uncontrolledrectifier Buck converter battery storage and auxiliary loadBuck converter is for adjusting the turbine speed and chang-ing the operation of the wind turbine Battery storage systemmanages the charge and discharge by Buck-boost converterAuxiliary load is mainly for dynamic coordination of modeconversion and for eliminating the excess power duringmodeconversion
Because of the dynamic change of the wind speed andthe load power the system is able to operate two operationalmodes of the maximum power tracking and power control-ling The maximum power tracking is improved on the basisof traditional capture power curve The tracking strategy isbased on effective generator output power When the outputpower exceeds the load or the maximum charge power of thebattery the systemwill switch to the power controllingmode
The coordinating controller selects the operational modeof the wind generator system according to real-time windspeed load and the state of the battery Given the largeinertia and the slow response this paper proposes a dual-mode dynamic coordination strategy based on auxiliary loadto effectively address the imbalanced power during modeconversion

4 Maximum Effective GeneratorPower Optimization
Wind energy capture is decided by power curve provided byproducers But the power curve only indicates the capturepower of the turbine rather than effective generator outputpower As a matter of fact losses in turbines do influencethe effective capture power and should be considered in theoptimized solution to achieve the effective output power andthe turbine speed
The turbine loss power and generator loss power areexpressed as
119875119908loss = 119879loss120596 + 119875cu + 119875Fe (14)

Figure 3 shows the power curve of 5 kW turbines (pro-vided by producers) and the relationship between the gener-ator output power and the optimized turbine speed As thewind velocity increases the wind turbine mechanical power(more load) is deviated from the optimized generator outputpower and both curves have the same trend
5 Dual-Mode Power Control for WGS
The maximum effective power tracking mode (Mode I) andpower regulation mode (Mode II) are shown in Figure 4The coordinating controller selects operational modes andcompletes mode conversion Given the big inertia of theturbine and the slow response to the mode conversionin particular when it switches from Mode I to Mode IIthere is unavoidably excessive powerTherefore a dual-modedynamic coordination strategy based on auxiliary load isproposed to reduce the influence of conversion
Mode I The battery is in the safety area The voltage is119880119887isin [119880min 119880max] and the current is 119894
119887isin [119894bdmax 119894bcmax]
The turbine works in the maximum effective output powercapture zone The battery storage system in accordance withthe change of thewind speed and load power operates at Buckcharge or Boost discharge that is

119894bcmax the system will switch to the power controlling modeUnder such mode the turbine will operate for the purpose ofreaching the maximum sum of charge power and load powerand will reduce the capture power This is at Buck modeSuppose the standard power is 119875

1 second and that the actual output power equals the effectivegenerator output power The variation of the current inFigure 9 proves that the coordinating controller can rapidlycontrol the battery storage systemrsquos charge-discharge modebased on the output current and load current of the generatorand can ensure the constancy of the load power
Before the system startup (within 20 sec) the load power(250W) is totally provided by battery and Buck-boost oper-ates in boost mode The wind turbines start up at 20 s andthe wind speed is 5ms generatorrsquos output power is 950Wexceeding the load power of 700W Battery storage systemoperates at the Buck charge mode and rapidly charges thebattery by 550W The voltage of the battery rises to 175Vwithin 100 s (Figure 8 shows the battery voltage) At 150 s thegeneratorrsquos maximum output power reaches 2750W the loadpower increases to 1200W and the battery charge power is850W For this purpose the ascending range of the batteryvoltage is inferior to the ascending range of voltage whenthe wind speed was 6ms At 394 s the wind speed drops to5ms and the effective output is insufficient to provide the950W load power supply the coordinating controller rapidlychanges the battery storage systemmode (Boost) and suppliesthe insufficiency by 250W power making the battery voltage173V At 420 s the load power drops to 250W and the batterystorage system alters the workingmode to Buck chargemodethen the battery voltage once more rises to 175V As for theabrupt change of the battery voltage during the operationprocess it is because the battery voltage is influenced bycharge-discharge current
As shown in Figure 7 the generator maximum outputpower tracking is achieved by making the generatorrsquos opti-mized speed as the tracking object Comparing the optimizedgenerator speed and the speed based on power curve it canbe seen that the two vary little at 5ms and 6ms but thegenerator speed increased by 3 rpm and 6 rpm at 7ms and75ms compared to the speed based on power curve therebyit proves the necessity of the wind turbines speed controllingstrategy based on generatorrsquos loss

output power tracking mode to the power regulation modeThe system is firstly operated in maximum effective powertracking mode (wind speed 7ms) and the charge current ofthe battery is 75 A the actual output equals the maximumeffective output which is 2750W At 60 s the wind speedincreases to 85ms and the generatorrsquos maximum effectiveoutput power increases to 5000W At this time in orderto prevent the battery from overcharging the maximumacceptable current and load current are used as criteria andreference to adjust the wind turbinesrsquo operating point rapidlydeviating the operating point from the maximum wind-energy capture area By this we control the charging currentas 10A as well as guarantee the load power supply Given thatthe wind turbine systemrsquos great inertia may prevent the modeswitch of the dynamic procedure from transient complementthe auxiliary load starts and consumes the surplus power(250W) by 1 A and finally enables the system to stabilize thecharging current as 10A at around 10 s At 120 s the windspeed is reduced to 8ms the generator output power isdeviated from the maximum effective output by 500W andcompletes the dynamic adjustment within only 15 s as well asmaintaining the 10A charge current This further proves theeffectiveness of power controlling mode

7 Conclusion
This paper constructs a wind generator system loss modelpaying attention to wind turbines and generator loss It aimsto optimize themaximum effective output power and turbinespeed Given that the wind generator system has inertia and isnonlinear this model takes the advantage of the duty of Buckconverter and employs feedback linearization to optimizethe turbine speed and to design the load power controllerAccording to that this paper proposes a dual-mode dynamiccoordination strategy based on aiding load
The test results show that there is a derivation betweenthe turbine speed of the maximum effective output powerand that of the traditional power curve Under huge loadthe derivation is as much as 6 rpm It makes it possibleto optimize the turbine speed and effective tracking basedon controlling of the maximum charge power and the loadpower It addresses the slow reaction to the mode conversionand the overcharge of the battery

4 Maximum Effective GeneratorPower Optimization
Wind energy capture is decided by power curve provided byproducers But the power curve only indicates the capturepower of the turbine rather than effective generator outputpower As a matter of fact losses in turbines do influencethe effective capture power and should be considered in theoptimized solution to achieve the effective output power andthe turbine speed
The turbine loss power and generator loss power areexpressed as
119875119908loss = 119879loss120596 + 119875cu + 119875Fe (14)

Figure 3 shows the power curve of 5 kW turbines (pro-vided by producers) and the relationship between the gener-ator output power and the optimized turbine speed As thewind velocity increases the wind turbine mechanical power(more load) is deviated from the optimized generator outputpower and both curves have the same trend
5 Dual-Mode Power Control for WGS
The maximum effective power tracking mode (Mode I) andpower regulation mode (Mode II) are shown in Figure 4The coordinating controller selects operational modes andcompletes mode conversion Given the big inertia of theturbine and the slow response to the mode conversionin particular when it switches from Mode I to Mode IIthere is unavoidably excessive powerTherefore a dual-modedynamic coordination strategy based on auxiliary load isproposed to reduce the influence of conversion
Mode I The battery is in the safety area The voltage is119880119887isin [119880min 119880max] and the current is 119894
119887isin [119894bdmax 119894bcmax]
The turbine works in the maximum effective output powercapture zone The battery storage system in accordance withthe change of thewind speed and load power operates at Buckcharge or Boost discharge that is

119894bcmax the system will switch to the power controlling modeUnder such mode the turbine will operate for the purpose ofreaching the maximum sum of charge power and load powerand will reduce the capture power This is at Buck modeSuppose the standard power is 119875

1 second and that the actual output power equals the effectivegenerator output power The variation of the current inFigure 9 proves that the coordinating controller can rapidlycontrol the battery storage systemrsquos charge-discharge modebased on the output current and load current of the generatorand can ensure the constancy of the load power
Before the system startup (within 20 sec) the load power(250W) is totally provided by battery and Buck-boost oper-ates in boost mode The wind turbines start up at 20 s andthe wind speed is 5ms generatorrsquos output power is 950Wexceeding the load power of 700W Battery storage systemoperates at the Buck charge mode and rapidly charges thebattery by 550W The voltage of the battery rises to 175Vwithin 100 s (Figure 8 shows the battery voltage) At 150 s thegeneratorrsquos maximum output power reaches 2750W the loadpower increases to 1200W and the battery charge power is850W For this purpose the ascending range of the batteryvoltage is inferior to the ascending range of voltage whenthe wind speed was 6ms At 394 s the wind speed drops to5ms and the effective output is insufficient to provide the950W load power supply the coordinating controller rapidlychanges the battery storage systemmode (Boost) and suppliesthe insufficiency by 250W power making the battery voltage173V At 420 s the load power drops to 250W and the batterystorage system alters the workingmode to Buck chargemodethen the battery voltage once more rises to 175V As for theabrupt change of the battery voltage during the operationprocess it is because the battery voltage is influenced bycharge-discharge current
As shown in Figure 7 the generator maximum outputpower tracking is achieved by making the generatorrsquos opti-mized speed as the tracking object Comparing the optimizedgenerator speed and the speed based on power curve it canbe seen that the two vary little at 5ms and 6ms but thegenerator speed increased by 3 rpm and 6 rpm at 7ms and75ms compared to the speed based on power curve therebyit proves the necessity of the wind turbines speed controllingstrategy based on generatorrsquos loss

7 Conclusion
This paper constructs a wind generator system loss modelpaying attention to wind turbines and generator loss It aimsto optimize themaximum effective output power and turbinespeed Given that the wind generator system has inertia and isnonlinear this model takes the advantage of the duty of Buckconverter and employs feedback linearization to optimizethe turbine speed and to design the load power controllerAccording to that this paper proposes a dual-mode dynamiccoordination strategy based on aiding load
The test results show that there is a derivation betweenthe turbine speed of the maximum effective output powerand that of the traditional power curve Under huge loadthe derivation is as much as 6 rpm It makes it possibleto optimize the turbine speed and effective tracking basedon controlling of the maximum charge power and the loadpower It addresses the slow reaction to the mode conversionand the overcharge of the battery

1 second and that the actual output power equals the effectivegenerator output power The variation of the current inFigure 9 proves that the coordinating controller can rapidlycontrol the battery storage systemrsquos charge-discharge modebased on the output current and load current of the generatorand can ensure the constancy of the load power
Before the system startup (within 20 sec) the load power(250W) is totally provided by battery and Buck-boost oper-ates in boost mode The wind turbines start up at 20 s andthe wind speed is 5ms generatorrsquos output power is 950Wexceeding the load power of 700W Battery storage systemoperates at the Buck charge mode and rapidly charges thebattery by 550W The voltage of the battery rises to 175Vwithin 100 s (Figure 8 shows the battery voltage) At 150 s thegeneratorrsquos maximum output power reaches 2750W the loadpower increases to 1200W and the battery charge power is850W For this purpose the ascending range of the batteryvoltage is inferior to the ascending range of voltage whenthe wind speed was 6ms At 394 s the wind speed drops to5ms and the effective output is insufficient to provide the950W load power supply the coordinating controller rapidlychanges the battery storage systemmode (Boost) and suppliesthe insufficiency by 250W power making the battery voltage173V At 420 s the load power drops to 250W and the batterystorage system alters the workingmode to Buck chargemodethen the battery voltage once more rises to 175V As for theabrupt change of the battery voltage during the operationprocess it is because the battery voltage is influenced bycharge-discharge current
As shown in Figure 7 the generator maximum outputpower tracking is achieved by making the generatorrsquos opti-mized speed as the tracking object Comparing the optimizedgenerator speed and the speed based on power curve it canbe seen that the two vary little at 5ms and 6ms but thegenerator speed increased by 3 rpm and 6 rpm at 7ms and75ms compared to the speed based on power curve therebyit proves the necessity of the wind turbines speed controllingstrategy based on generatorrsquos loss

7 Conclusion
This paper constructs a wind generator system loss modelpaying attention to wind turbines and generator loss It aimsto optimize themaximum effective output power and turbinespeed Given that the wind generator system has inertia and isnonlinear this model takes the advantage of the duty of Buckconverter and employs feedback linearization to optimizethe turbine speed and to design the load power controllerAccording to that this paper proposes a dual-mode dynamiccoordination strategy based on aiding load
The test results show that there is a derivation betweenthe turbine speed of the maximum effective output powerand that of the traditional power curve Under huge loadthe derivation is as much as 6 rpm It makes it possibleto optimize the turbine speed and effective tracking basedon controlling of the maximum charge power and the loadpower It addresses the slow reaction to the mode conversionand the overcharge of the battery

1 second and that the actual output power equals the effectivegenerator output power The variation of the current inFigure 9 proves that the coordinating controller can rapidlycontrol the battery storage systemrsquos charge-discharge modebased on the output current and load current of the generatorand can ensure the constancy of the load power
Before the system startup (within 20 sec) the load power(250W) is totally provided by battery and Buck-boost oper-ates in boost mode The wind turbines start up at 20 s andthe wind speed is 5ms generatorrsquos output power is 950Wexceeding the load power of 700W Battery storage systemoperates at the Buck charge mode and rapidly charges thebattery by 550W The voltage of the battery rises to 175Vwithin 100 s (Figure 8 shows the battery voltage) At 150 s thegeneratorrsquos maximum output power reaches 2750W the loadpower increases to 1200W and the battery charge power is850W For this purpose the ascending range of the batteryvoltage is inferior to the ascending range of voltage whenthe wind speed was 6ms At 394 s the wind speed drops to5ms and the effective output is insufficient to provide the950W load power supply the coordinating controller rapidlychanges the battery storage systemmode (Boost) and suppliesthe insufficiency by 250W power making the battery voltage173V At 420 s the load power drops to 250W and the batterystorage system alters the workingmode to Buck chargemodethen the battery voltage once more rises to 175V As for theabrupt change of the battery voltage during the operationprocess it is because the battery voltage is influenced bycharge-discharge current
As shown in Figure 7 the generator maximum outputpower tracking is achieved by making the generatorrsquos opti-mized speed as the tracking object Comparing the optimizedgenerator speed and the speed based on power curve it canbe seen that the two vary little at 5ms and 6ms but thegenerator speed increased by 3 rpm and 6 rpm at 7ms and75ms compared to the speed based on power curve therebyit proves the necessity of the wind turbines speed controllingstrategy based on generatorrsquos loss

7 Conclusion
This paper constructs a wind generator system loss modelpaying attention to wind turbines and generator loss It aimsto optimize themaximum effective output power and turbinespeed Given that the wind generator system has inertia and isnonlinear this model takes the advantage of the duty of Buckconverter and employs feedback linearization to optimizethe turbine speed and to design the load power controllerAccording to that this paper proposes a dual-mode dynamiccoordination strategy based on aiding load
The test results show that there is a derivation betweenthe turbine speed of the maximum effective output powerand that of the traditional power curve Under huge loadthe derivation is as much as 6 rpm It makes it possibleto optimize the turbine speed and effective tracking basedon controlling of the maximum charge power and the loadpower It addresses the slow reaction to the mode conversionand the overcharge of the battery

1 second and that the actual output power equals the effectivegenerator output power The variation of the current inFigure 9 proves that the coordinating controller can rapidlycontrol the battery storage systemrsquos charge-discharge modebased on the output current and load current of the generatorand can ensure the constancy of the load power
Before the system startup (within 20 sec) the load power(250W) is totally provided by battery and Buck-boost oper-ates in boost mode The wind turbines start up at 20 s andthe wind speed is 5ms generatorrsquos output power is 950Wexceeding the load power of 700W Battery storage systemoperates at the Buck charge mode and rapidly charges thebattery by 550W The voltage of the battery rises to 175Vwithin 100 s (Figure 8 shows the battery voltage) At 150 s thegeneratorrsquos maximum output power reaches 2750W the loadpower increases to 1200W and the battery charge power is850W For this purpose the ascending range of the batteryvoltage is inferior to the ascending range of voltage whenthe wind speed was 6ms At 394 s the wind speed drops to5ms and the effective output is insufficient to provide the950W load power supply the coordinating controller rapidlychanges the battery storage systemmode (Boost) and suppliesthe insufficiency by 250W power making the battery voltage173V At 420 s the load power drops to 250W and the batterystorage system alters the workingmode to Buck chargemodethen the battery voltage once more rises to 175V As for theabrupt change of the battery voltage during the operationprocess it is because the battery voltage is influenced bycharge-discharge current
As shown in Figure 7 the generator maximum outputpower tracking is achieved by making the generatorrsquos opti-mized speed as the tracking object Comparing the optimizedgenerator speed and the speed based on power curve it canbe seen that the two vary little at 5ms and 6ms but thegenerator speed increased by 3 rpm and 6 rpm at 7ms and75ms compared to the speed based on power curve therebyit proves the necessity of the wind turbines speed controllingstrategy based on generatorrsquos loss

7 Conclusion
This paper constructs a wind generator system loss modelpaying attention to wind turbines and generator loss It aimsto optimize themaximum effective output power and turbinespeed Given that the wind generator system has inertia and isnonlinear this model takes the advantage of the duty of Buckconverter and employs feedback linearization to optimizethe turbine speed and to design the load power controllerAccording to that this paper proposes a dual-mode dynamiccoordination strategy based on aiding load
The test results show that there is a derivation betweenthe turbine speed of the maximum effective output powerand that of the traditional power curve Under huge loadthe derivation is as much as 6 rpm It makes it possibleto optimize the turbine speed and effective tracking basedon controlling of the maximum charge power and the loadpower It addresses the slow reaction to the mode conversionand the overcharge of the battery
