The integration of distributed generation transforms current distribution networks from vertically operated to horizontally operated. This transition leads to problems related to protection coordination. In the future, new protection philosophies should be applied which guarantee the increase of the during-fault distributed generation availability. The paper presents a protection scheme based on fault...
This paper proposes a new converter protection method, primarily based on a series dynamic resistor (SDR) that avoids the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) control being disabled by crowbar protection during fault conditions. A combined converter protection scheme based on the proposed SDR and conventional crowbar is analyzed and discussed. The main protection advantages are due to the series...
A doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) system is being applied to the modern wind turbines, because it has many advantages such as the variable-speed operation, relatively high efficiency and the small converter size. This paper proposes a protection algorithm for a DFIG based on the d-q equivalent circuit in the time domain. In the DFIG, the voltages and currents of the rotor the stator side are...
It is proposed in this article an optimal solution to improve the transient behavior of doubly-fed induction generators in wind parks connected to the electrical grid, when they are submitted to voltage sags due to the occurrence of faults in the electrical network. The recommended procedure in these cases is to maintaining the wind generator connected to the electrical network during and after the...
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...
