This paper presents wind energy conversion model, drive shaft’s dual-mass model and generator’s transient mathematical model for the transient analysis of fixed speed asynchronous wind generators, and analyzes the transient characteristics of the wind generators under the condition of low voltage fault. The control principles of two dynamic reactive power compensation equipments as static var compensator (SVC) and static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) are introduced. Take a wind farm consists of fixed speed asynchronous wind generators as an example, the two compensation equipments are simulated in PowerFactory/DIgSILENT to compare the effort of them on enhancing the low voltage ride-through capability of the wind farm.

The main purpose of this paper is to study the enhancement of the Low-Voltage-Ride-Through (LVRT) capability of the wind farm with the installment of the Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) and the Static Var Compensator (SVC). With more penetration of wind energy from on-shore and off-shore wind farms, utilities have been starting to set up the regulation requiring the wind turbine generators to remain connected to the grid when a fault takes place in the system which is referred to as Low-Voltage-Ride-Through (LVRT). A wind farm composed with doubly fed induction generators is used as the study system. Both the STATCOM and the SVC are utilized as the devices for enhancing the LVRT capability of the wind farm. The results are demonstrated for comparing the performance of the two devices in the improvement of voltage dynamic characteristics of the study system.

Using power electronic converters with reduced capacity in doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbines make them vulnerable to over-current during grid disturbances. This thesis aims to analyze the behaviour of doubly-fed induction generators based wind farm for various timing schemes of crowbar deactivation and resumption of rotor side converter (RSC) in the case of grid fault. Also, usage of a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) for the purpose of stabilizing the grid voltage after a three-phase fault is studied in this these. Moreover, finding minimum capacity of STATCOM which ensures low-voltage ride through (LVRT) of wind farm is studied. Finally, coordination of reactive power from wind turbine generators and STATCOM in steady-state condition is performed. All the results in this thesis show that STATCOM improves low voltage ride through (LVRT) capability of wind farm and assists for an uninterrupted operation of wind turbine generators during grid faults.


Low voltage ride through capability is an ability of the wind farm to stay connected with grid at the time of disturbance in the power system. The penetration of wind based renewable energy resources is increasing and the low voltage ride through consideration is vital for systems studies. The literature available demonstrates the improvement in low voltage ride through either by using fault current limiters or by implementing a control strategy for induction generator based wind farms. In this paper the low voltage ride through capability enhancement of the fixed speed induction generator is presented with various fault current limiters. The authors have presented the effects of fault current limiters in the aggregated hybrid wind farm consisting the combination of fixed speed induction generators and doubly fed induction generators which is not available in literature so far. A transient fault is simulated using PSCAD/EMTDC software in both the cases and the results are presented and discussed.

Large-scale wind farm connecting to the grid will affect the stability of the grid, therefore dynamic reactive power compensation devices need to be installed at the wind farm in order to reduce the negative impact after connecting to the grid, andimprove the low voltageridethrough capability of the grid system wind turbine. Simulation models of a wind farm and SVCare built in PSCAD. In different fault location, simulations are carried out respectively to analyze the effect of SVC on LVRT. The results show that SVC can effectively improve the LVRT capability.
