Large size wind farms are booming day by day. As wind energy generated is highly dynamic and dependent on only wind, the overall system’s performance is important for profitable operation. Faults produced by wind turbine generator systems will impact not only the wind farms but also the interconnected system including the grid if proper protection is not ensured. In this paper it is proposed to model a 1.5MW wind farm using doubly fed induction generator and study the effects of phase to ground faults under various load conditions. For the study the vector control of the Doubly Fed Induction Generator is used.

Doubly Fed

Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind farm is today the most widely used concept. This paper presents dynamic response enhancement of DFIG based wind farm under remote fault conditions using the fuzzy logic controller. The goal of the work is to improve the dynamic response of DFIG based wind farm during and after the clearance of fault using the proposed controller. The stability of wind farm during and after the clearance of fault is investigated. The effectiveness of the fuzzy logic controller is then compared with that of a PI controller. The validity of the controllers in restoring the wind farms normal operation after the clearance of fault is illustrated by the simulation results which are carried out using MATLAB/SIMULINK. Simulation results are analyzed under different fault conditions.
