This paper presents implementation of Feedback Linearization based control (FBLC) for the smooth connection of the doubly fed induction generator to the power grid and for the power control of the grid connected doubly fed induction generator. The induced stator voltage vector of the DFIG is synchronized with the grid voltage irrespective of the accuracy of signal from position encoder. Computer simulation...
This paper studied mathematical model of doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbine generation system under unbalanced voltage. A dual-PI current control strategy was proposed to improve the performance of DFIG's rotor side convert (RSC) under asymmetrical voltage condition. The symmetrical component theory is employed to decompose asymmetrical three-phase variable such as voltage and...
Doubly Fed Induction Generators (DFIG) has emerged as a suitable alternative for conversion of wind energy to grid quality energy under varying wind conditions. Often the control mechanism use large number of sensors and employ complex computations. Moreover, the reported control schemes for DFIG employing grid side converter (GSC) do not ensure a drawl of unity power factor (upf) sinusoidal current...
A novel scheme for enhancing the fault ride-through (FRT) capability of Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is proposed in this paper. In addition, a coordinated reactive power control strategy for grid side and rotor side converters of DFIG is also proposed. This coordinated control aids rapid recovery of terminal voltage at the clearance of severe grid fault. Extensive simulation study is carried...
The increased penetration of wind power by doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) in power system results in higher frequency excursion and increased rate of change of frequency in the event of generation loss or increased load demand. This paper presents the added feature of frequency regulation capability of the DFIG by incorporating an extra frequency control support function, tested on an interconnected...
The doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) is one of the most widely used generator wind turbines. It can be controlled through rotor slip recovery with machine and line side converters (back-to-back converter). The active power and the reactive power flow can be controlled independently. A bi-level control objective is presented in this paper. The first level determines the maximum power from the...
This paper deals with the analysis, modeling, and control of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) driven by the wind turbine. A control technique is presented for extracting the maximum power from the wind turbine. The wind energy conversion system (WECS) is equipped with a DFIG and two back-to-back connected voltage source converters (VSCs) in the rotor circuit. The proposed control technique...
With increasing penetration of wind power, there is rising need to manage its intermittency. This paper explores the control and operational aspects of integrating a short and long-term storage mix, consisting of a fuel-cell, an elcetrolyzer and an ultracapacitor, into the double-fed induction generator based wind-power system, making it dispatchable. The fuel-cell/electrolyzer is employed to provide...
This paper proposes a new vector-based hysteresis current regulator (VBHCR) in the rotor-side converter of DFIG to enhance the control performance under unbalanced supply voltage condition. The “Γ-form” is used for the equivalent circuit of the machine to reduce the modeling complexity. This is followed by presenting the principle and practical implementation of the proposed VBHCR in the DFIG application...
This paper examines the impact of increased penetration of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind power generation on frequency control of an interconnected two-area hydrothermal power system. The power electronic control of DFIG effectively isolates the inertia from the grid which will impose the serious threat to frequency regulation capability of the system. To mitigate the frequency...
This paper focuses on wind energy conversion system (WECS) analysis and control for power generation along with problems related to the mitigation of harmonic pollution in the grid using a variable-speed structure control of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). A control approach based on the so-called sliding mode control (SMC) that is both efficient and suitable is used for power generation...

Based on a comparative study, the rotor over-current of DFIG and DC-link over-voltage of PMSG are identified as two main issues during grid voltage dips. A novel control strategy is proposed...

Multi Frequency Resonant Controllers are incorporated into the grid side and rotor side converters to assist in the control functions. The Resonant Controllers are tuned to twice the network frequency to assist in the control of power and...

The advancing technologies are boosting the wind turbine development rapidly and today the wind power generation has become a proven technology. However, still the research and development are motivated to go into further detail to simplify and optimize the control strategies. This paper addresses a simplified control strategy based on rotor current reference frame. The decoupled active and reactive...
The paper considers the behaviour of the rotor current of a DFIG during a fault on the network. It is seen that a large disturbance of the stator voltage will cause high transient rotor currents which trigger the crowbar protection for the rotor side converter (RSC). Once the crowbar is applied it cannot be removed until its current reaches zero. During the period the crowbar is applied, the machine...
An improved control scheme for sensorless vector control of grid-connected doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs) is presented when the network voltage is unbalanced. The system is based on a rotor current model reference adaptive system (MRAS) in the stator stationary reference frame. The observed rotational speed and rotor position angle are employed for the reference frame transformations of rotor...
Due to the double fed induction generatorpsilas (DFIG) advantage of controlling active and reactive power independently and partial power converter, DFIG is becoming a popular type of wind power generation system. Nowadays, the grid code demands that the wind power generator possesses the ability of riding through the grid voltage sags, only when the grid voltage drops below the specific curve, the...
Crowbar-based control is one of the main low voltage ride through (LVRT) control methods for doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), but converter is still at risk of being damaged by over-current at rotor side after crowbar exits during fault recovering period. For the issue, a model for fault process analysis based on equivalent dynamic model of DFIG is established. The mechanism of phase angle jumping...
