The Voltage Source Converter-HVDC (VSC-HVDC) system applied to wind power generation can solve large scale wind farm grid-connection and long distance transmission problems. However, the low voltage ride through (LVRT) of the VSC-HVDC connected wind farm is a key technology issue that must be solved, and it is currently lacking an economic and effective solution.

Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) based on Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) connected to the grid is subjected to high transient currents at rotor side and rise in DC-link voltage during voltage sag at stator/grid side. To secure power system operation wind turbines have to meet grid requirements through the Low voltage ride through (LVRT) capability and contribute to grid voltage contr...

Wind energy is the fastest growing renewable energy source. Double Fed Induction Generator, which is predominantly used nowadays in wind turbines, is very sensitive to grid disturbances and can damage the power electronic converters due to over voltage and over current. Therefore, protection elements which disconnect the machine during fault are very essential. But, in such cases, the reliabili...

The linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller is used to enhance the low voltage ride through (LVRT) of doubly-fed induction generator based wind turbines (DFIG-WT). A heuristic optimization method, which is MVMO, is used for optimal design of the LQR weighting matrices Q and R. The objective function of the optimization problem is to minimize the peak short-circuit current and the associated...
