There are many solar power and wind stations installed in the power system for environmental and economic reasons. In fact, wind energy is inexpensive and the safest among all sources of renewable energy, it has been recognized that variable speed wind turbine based on the doubly fed induction generator is the most effective with less cost and high power yield. Therefore, this paper has chosen doubly fed induction generator for a comprehensive study of modeling, analyzing, and control. DFIG in wind turbine has to operate below and above the synchronous speed, which requires smooth transition mode change for reliable operation, specially, close to synchronous speed where the DFIGWT instability starts to appear. Furthermore, its output electric power has to be controlled to provide stability for the power system; hence its performance depends on the generator itself and the converter operation and control system. This paper presents completed mathematical model of DFIG with its AC/DC/AC converter driven by DC machine. A new vector control technique is designed and modeled, which allows to evaluate the dynamic performance of the controller under (below, above, and through synchronous speed). The simulation results demonstrate the accuracy and high performance of the new control system of DFIG for wind turbine, which provides smooth transition mode without using any extra circuit.

This paper presents completed mathematical model of DFIG with its AC/DC/AC converter driven by DC machine. The rotor is considered fed by a voltage source converter whereas the stator is connected to the grid directly. The capacity of the wind power generation is 1.5MW. The voltage rating and frequency for this system are 575V, 50Hz .This paper show detailed model of DFIG.

This paper describes the modelling and control system of a wind turbine, using a doubly fed induction generator. This configuration makes the wind turbine suitable for variable speed wind energy application. The power captured by the wind turbine is converted into electrical power by the induction generator, and it is transmitted to the grid by the stator and the rotor windings. The control system generates voltage command signals for rotor converter and grid converter, respectively, in order to control the power of the wind turbine. Reactive power exchanged with the network through the converters is set to 0 VAr. The control strategy has been developed using MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results are presented and discussed in the conclusions. Keywords: Wind energy, doubly fed induction generator, grid power, modelling, control.

As the number of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)- based wind-turbine systems continues to increase, wind turbines are required to provide Low Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) capability, especially under the condition of grid voltage dips. This paper, depending on the operating characteristics of doubly-fed induction generator during grid faults ,deals with a protection and control strategy on rotor-side converter (RSC) to enhance the low voltage ride through capability of a wind turbine driven doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). The simulation and experiment studies demonstrate the correctness of the developed model and the effectiveness of the control strategy for DFIG-based wind-turbine systems under such adverse grid conditions.


Automatic Generation Control of two area multi unit interconnected thermal power system with dynamic participation of Doubly Fed Induction Generator based on the wind turbines. In this work two areas consisting of three unequal turbines both areas are connected to the DFIG based wind turbine. Area 1 consisting of three reheat turbines with Doubly Fed Induction Generator based on wind turbine and area2 consisting of three non reheat turbines with Doubly Fed Induction Generator based on wind turbine and two areas interconnected by tie line. Two different controllers are used, namely PID and cascaded PD-PI controllers. The controllers effectively tuned by hybridization algorithm. 1% step load disturbance is applied in area 1 for analyzing the dynamic performance. The performance of two area multi-unit power system is done in MATLAB/SIMILINK software. The dynamic response of the considered system is compared in terms of undershoots, overshoot and settling times

Due to increasing demand in power, the integration of renewable sources like wind generation into power system is gaining much importance nowadays. The heavy penetration of wind power into the power system leads to many integration issues mainly due to the intermittent nature of the wind and the desirability for variable speed operation of the generators. As the wind power generation depends on the wind speed, its integration into the grid has noticeable influence on the system stability and becomes an important issue especially when a fault occurs on the grid. The protective disconnection of a large amount of wind power during a fault will be an unacceptable consequence and threatens the power system stability. With the increasing use of wind turbines employing Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) technology, it becomes a necessity to investigate their behavior during grid faults and support them with fault ride through capability. This paper presents the modeling and simulation of a doubly fed induction generator according to grid code compatibility driven by a wind turbine connected to the grid. This paper analyses the voltage sag due to a three-phase fault in the wind connected grid. A control strategy including a crowbar circuit has been developed in MATLAB/SIMULINK to bypass the rotor over currents during grid fault to enhance the fault ride through capability and to maintain system stability. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed control strategies in DFIG based grid connected wind turbine system.
