Study of Stabilty Analysis of a Grid Connected Doubly Fed Induction Generator Based on Wind Energy Application

The present paper formulates the state space modeling of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbine system for the purpose of the stability analysis. The objective of this study is to discuss the various modes of operation of the DFIG system under different operating conditions such as voltage sags with reference to variable wind speed and grid connection. The proposed control methodology exploits the potential of the DFIG scheme to avoid that grid voltage unbalances compromise the machine operation, and to compensate voltage unbalances at the point of common coupling (PCC), preventing adverse effects on loads connected next to the PCC. This methodology uses the rotor side converter (RSC) to control the stator current injected through the machine and the GSC to control the stator voltage to minimize the electromagnetic torque oscillations. The proposed control methodology is validated by simulation results.
