This paper builds the mathematical model of a doubly-fed wind power generator (DFIG) which is widely used in wind power generation. Based on stator magnetic field orientation vector technique, active and reactive power decoupling control strategy is constructed. Based on the software package PSCAD/EMTDC, the grid-connected system of DFIG is modeled, and the dynamic response characteristics of generators active and reactive power on ramp change of wind speed conditions is simulated and analyzed. The simulation results show that the variable pitch DFIG has good operating characteristics and the model is correct.

Wind energy is one of the extraordinary sources of renewable energy due to its clean character and free availability. With increase in 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 generators (WTGs). Therefore, the analysis of wind power dynamics with the DFIG wind turbines has become a very important research issue, especially during transient faults. In this article, a controller is provided to control the active and reactive power of a wind system equipped with doubly fed induction generator. The generator is connected to the grid by a back to back converter that gets benefit from control system known as single periodic controller. Grid and generator side converters respectively control the generator speed and reactive power using proposed controller. In order to increase the accuracy of controller, we optimized its PI parameters using genetic optimization algorithm. Finally, simulation results conducted by the MATLAB software are shown. The results of simulation gained through this system, show the capability of proposed controller under error conditions for controlling active and reactive power and also elimination of harmonics caused by non-linear load.

Based on the traditional single power control of the doubly-fed wind generator, this paper proposes an active/reactive power hybrid control method of the doubly-fed wind generator, which associates the operation characteristics of the doubly-fed wind generator with the operating conditions of the power grid. This proposed method incorporates the power variation in the system transmission channel into the calculation of the wind generator power output, and employs the additional control function of the wind generator to increase system damping and restrain system power oscillation. At the same time, the proposed method controls the wind generator to capture the maximum wind power when it is operating at a variable speed with a constant frequency. Moreover, because the proposed method decouples the control of active and reactive power, the converter capacity can be reduced. Simulations in a 9-generator 13-bus system and results indicate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.

To reliably realize the grid-connection generating of brushless doubly-fed machine (BDFM), this paper firstly focuses on some essential issues, such as amplitude, frequency and phase of power winding voltage; the control of active and reactive power. Deducing the control method of power winding voltage amplitude, frequency and phase based on basic electrical machine principle. Referring synchronous machine theory, the modulation principle of active and reactive power for BDFM is obtained. Then, the connection progress to grid is researched by setting up the control platform based on DSP. The experimental results show that the amplitude, frequency and phase of power winding voltage are effectively controlled and the active and reactive power could be regulated when adopting the decoupled voltage control strategy. This control method provides a practical realization manner in the application of wind power generation and so on.

In Japan, with the recent increase in wind power generator installations, the incidence of lightning damage to FRP blades is increasing. Lightning damage is a significant issue in Japan since lightning in Japan seems severer than that in Europe or the US. In Kochi, Japan, six 600-750 kW grade generators have been installed, and some have been damaged by lightning several times. To resolve this problem, the Kochi University of Technology received a request in 2002 from the Kochi prefectural government for research into lightning protection. After surveying the literature and questioning related organizations such as NREL and Toray USA, experiments to protect against lightning damage to FRP blades of wind power generators were planned. Half size models and two 1/4 parts of a full size 250kW blade were prepared as specimens for this research. The method investigated to protect against lightning damage was metal coating. The aim being to protect against blade failure by using metal coating in actual field situations; by using a 1/2 size model and the full size blade specimens in an experimental situation. As in previous experiments, these ones were mainly conducted in the Toshiba Hamakawasaki High Voltage High Power Testing Laboratory. This Testing Laboratory is one of the biggest test laboratories for experiments involving high voltages and large currents.
