Wind energy is one of the extraordinary sources of renewable energy due to its clean character and free availability. With the increasing wind power penetration, the wind farms are directly influencing the power systems. The majority of wind farms are using variable speed wind turbines equipped with doubly fed induction generators (DFIG) due to their advantages over other wind turbine generator...

Recently, an increasing number of multi-MW (1MW and up) wind generating set are being developed with a variable speed-variable pitch (VS-VP) control strategy to improve the fast response speed and get optimal energy. But the power generated by wind turbine changes rapidly because of the continuous fluctuation of wind speed and direction, and wind energy conversion systems are of strong nonlinea...

This paper presents fuzzy logic control of Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) wind turbine in a sample power system. DFIG consists of a common induction generator with slip ring and a partial scale power electronic converter. Fuzzy logic controller is applied to rotor side converter for active power control and voltage regulation of wind turbine. Wind turbine and its control unit are describ...

This paper presents dynamic modeling and simulation of Brushless Doubly Fed Induction Generator (BDFIG) as an alternative for variable speed wind power applications. The mathematic models of active and reactive power for BDFIG have been developed. The power control systems of a 75 kVA generator and wind turbine were simulated in Matlab/Simulink/SymPower Systems. The generator’s control system i...

A design study for a 2 MW commercial wind turbine is presented to illustrate two connection methods for a standard doubly-fed induction machine which can extend the low speed range down to 80% slip without an increase in the rating of the power electronic converter. This far exceeds the normal 30% lower limit. The low speed connection is known as induction generator mode and the machine is oper...

This paper presents a control strategy for wind turbines to enhance their fault ride-through capability. The controller design is based on pitch controlled variable speed wind turbine equipped with doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG). The fault ride-through is realized by injecting a crowbar with variable resistance on the generator rotor circuit. To reduce the mechanical loads induced by gri...

a detailed model of wind power station, including double fed induction generator, dfig is presented in this paper. two control mechanisms are included in the model. the inner control system uses stator flux oriented control for the rotor side converter and grid voltage vector control for the grid side converter. the outer control system is used for wind turbine pitch angle. pscad/emtdc is used ...
