A second-order sliding mode (SOSM)-based direct power control (DPC) of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) is introduced in this research paper. Firstly, the DFIG output powers are regulated with the developed SOSM controller-based DPC scheme. The Super Twisting Algorithm (STA) has been used to reduce the chattering phenomenon. The proposed strategy is a combination of the Lyapunov theory and metaheuristics algorithms, which has been considered to identify the optimal gains of the STA-SOSM controllers. The Lyapunov function method is employed to define the stability regions of the controller parameters. On the other hand, the metaheuristics algorithms are mainly employed to select the fine controllers’ parameters from the predefined ranges. A Thermal Exchange Optimization (TEO) method is used to compute the optimal gain parameters. To prove the superiority of the proposed TEO, its obtained results have been compared with those obtained by other algorithms, including particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, water cycle algorithm, grasshopper optimization algorithm and harmony search algorithm. Moreover, the results of the introduced TEO-based SOSM controller have been also compared with the Proportional-Integral (PI)-based vector control and the conventional sliding mode control-based DPC. Moreover, an empirical comparison is carried out to investigate the indication of every metaheuristics method by employing Friedman’s rank and Bonferroni tests. The main findings indicate the effectiveness of STA-SOSM control for system stability and power quality improvement. The ripples in the active and reactive powers are minimized and the harmonics’ distortions of stator and rotor currents are improved. Besides, the STA-SOSM controller shows a superior performance of control in terms of chattering phenomenon elimination.
