Direct current grid‐based doubly‐fed induction generator wind turbines: Real‐time control and stability analysis

Abstract

Commonly, a simple topology consisting of a single diode‐rectifier and pulse‐width‐modulation (PWM) converter is used for the connection of the doubly‐fed induction generator‐based wind turbines (DFIG‐WTs) to the DC grid, in which the rotor‐side converter (RSC) and the stator diode‐rectifier are linked to the common DC bus. But, this topology suffers from less flexibility due to the requirement of matching the stator nominal voltage with the DC grid. Hence, in this paper, a buck converter is added to the DFIG‐WT topology and two methods are proposed to control the power converters, where in the first one, the RSC regulates the active power and stator flux linkage, and in the second one, the RSC regulates the DC bus voltage and stator flux linkage. Then, the small‐signal stability and the performance of the DFIG‐WT system with the mentioned control strategies are compared analytically and through the off‐line simulations. At last, a real‐time hardware‐in‐the‐loop (HIL) emulation‐based OPAL‐RT is carried out to investigate the performance of the proposed control methods from a practical perspective.

Research on control method of loop to power supply in active distribution network based on optimal frequency method

“…There are three types of stability sources in the loop supply current signal, which are the low-frequency ripple stability generated by the generator [7], the harmonic component generated by the transformer during the voltage switching process, and the synchronous stability generated by the instantaneous signal transformation. The generation principle of the stability signal in the loop power supply current signal is shown in figure 1 Considering the stability of the signal, the sampling circuit is used to obtain the loop supply current signal sample.…”

Effect of DFIG control parameters on small signal stability in power systems

“…The inter-area oscillation mode can be reflected in the dynamic response of the active power of the transmission line 31 . The amplitude of the oscillations reflects the small disturbance stability of the system.…”
