This paper shows the modeling and the effectiveness of wind turbine for voltage improvement of power systems. The wind turbine is based on a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG). A field-oriented control is used to control of the power flow exchanged between the DFIG and the power system. A simplified wind turbine model based on independent control of active and reactive powers is used in this paper. The proposed methodology is tested in the single machine power system connected to a wind farms in the case of sudden voltage variations.

Modern wind turbine technology has been a great improvement over the past couple decades, leading to large scale wind power penetration. The increasing penetration of wind power resulted in emphasizing the importance of reliable and secure operation of power systems, especially in a weak power system. In this paper, the main wind turbine control schemes, the wind penetration levels and wind farm dynamic behavior for grid code compliance were investigated in the Penghu wind power system, a weak isolated power system.

The doubly-fed induction generator has significant features compared to the fixed speed wind turbine, which has popularised its application in power systems. Due to partial rated back-to-back converters in the doubly-fed induction generator, fault ride-through capability improvement is one of the important subjects in relation to new grid code requirements. To enhance the fault ride-through capability of the doubly-fed induction generator, many studies have been carried out. Fault current limiting devices are one of the techniques utilised to limit the current level and protect the switches, of the back-to-back converter, from over-current damage. In this paper, a review is carried out based on the fault current limiting characteristic of fault current limiting devices, utilised in the doubly-fed induction generator. Accordingly, fault current limiters and series dynamic braking resistors are mainly considered. Operation of all configurations, including their advantages and disadvantages, is explained. Impedance type and the location of the fault current limiting devices are two important factors, which significantly affect the behaviour of the doubly-fed induction generator in the fault condition. These two factors are studied by way of simulation, basically, and their effects on the key parameters of the doubly-fed induction generator are investigated. Finally, future works, in respect to the application of the fault current limiter for the improvement of the fault ride-through of the doubly-fed induction generator, have also been discussed in the conclusion section.

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.

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.
