The Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is one of the most popular topologies applied in wind power systems. Its main advantage is to adjust the speed of a large system with much lower power converters. This is because its rotor side converter (RSC) operates under slip frequency and it needs only to support slip power to the overall system. However, this slip frequency is much lower than the grid...
The efficiency of the wind power conversions systems can be greatly improved using an appropriate control algorithm. In this work, a robust control for variable speed wind power generation that incorporates a doubly feed induction generator is described. In the presented design it is applied the so called vector control theory. The proposed control scheme uses stator flux-oriented control for the...
Numerous technical issues arise with the close spacing of multiple wind turbines in a wind farm, particularly one with a severely limited spatial footprint. One of the most important factors under consideration is the wake effect. Since the energy losses due to wakes can significantly decrease the energy production and lead to fluctuations in the output power of a wind farm it is desired to determine...
Recently, the size of wind turbines is increased. As a result, the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) plays an important role because of its simple structure and high efficiency. This paper proposes a torque and pitch control scheme for variable speed wind turbines. A torque controller is designed to maximize the output power below the rated wind speed and a pitch controller is designed...
This paper proposes a designing method of a restart procedure speed-sensorless vector controlled induction generators for wind power generation systems. A designing method for a restart procedure is mainly discussed in this paper. Transfer function over the input and the output is linearized by using feedback for simple designing control system. This method is experimentally verified by a test set.
In the control of the wind generation, the maximal power point tracking (MPPT) control plays important role in the efficiency. This paper presents the simulation results of the MPPT control with RTDS-based DFIG model. At first, it analyzes the vector-control scheme for the MTTP, which results in independent control of active and reactive power of the generator. And then, it develops the MPPT controller...
Generation of electricity using diesel is costly for a small remote isolated system. At a remote location electricity generation from renewable energy such as wind can help to reduce the overall operating costs by reducing the fuel costs. Siting of wind turbines connected to the diesel in a remote location effects wind penetration and power quality. In this paper we study how the location of a wind...
This paper focuses on the development of maximum wind power extraction strategies for variable speed constant frequency (VSCF) grid-connected wind power generation systems with a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). A new optimal control method is proposed by controlling the generator stator active and reactive power, which is based on the condition of the system operation for not only the extracted...
This paper focuses on the development of maximum wind power extraction strategies for variable speed constant frequency (VSCF) grid-connected wind power generation systems with a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). A new control method is proposed by directly controlling the DFIG rotor current to follow an optimal condition for not only the extracted maximum power of the wind turbine below the...
