Abstract

This paper explains about Fire fly Algorithm method (FA) as parameter tuning of Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller. PID is used to control wind turbine speed with pitch angle controller. FA method is used in tuning the control speed on wind turbine with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG). When wind speed is low in under the average value, speed control have to be able to maintain a level speed. Then it will give maximum output, so the turbine efficiency will be rise. Pitch angle setting is required in conditions of wind speed above the desired. Little change of pitch angle can influence power output. Pitch angle control is one of the way to adapt aerodynamic torque in wind turbine when wind speed is above on speed value and some other variable controls. From the experiments of the test, the results of the running programs show that tuning the system using the method of FA obtained the most optimal power output and stable compared to the Ziegler-Nichols method and the PID Controller.
