Due to numerous advantages of the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), the application of DFIG based wind generator (WG) is increasing very rapidly. However, the transient stability is one of the major concerns of the DFIG based wind generator. Therefore to accomplish this goal, in this paper, an existing non-linear controller based new inductive bridge type fault current limiter (NC-NIBFCL) ...

The ever-increasing penetration of wind power integration into a power system can produce significant impacts on the operation of an interconnected power system. As the major energy conversion technology for large wind turbines, the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) will play an important role in future power systems. Hence, the impacts of the DFIG on the low-frequency oscillations of inter...

Due to the increased importance of DFIGs in optimization of real and reactive power losses and the maintenance of voltage profile, the general methods of DG placement and sizing in the existing literature cannot be of practical importance in DFIG .In this paper a pure PSO method used in general DG is compared with a HGAPSO in the siting and sizing of DFIG with the objective of minimizing power ...

Because wind generators (WGs) in a wind power plant (WPP) produce different active powers due to wake effects, the reactive power capability of each WG is different. This paper proposes a hierarchical voltage control scheme for a WPP that uses a WPP controller and WG controller. In the proposed scheme, the WPP controller determines a voltage error signal by using a PI controller and sends it to...

Future energy demand and increasing carbon emission requires an alternative source of energy. In recent few years, Use of DFIG based wind farm increased tremendously, thus effect of wind penetration on small signal stability of existing multi machine system need to be analysed. In This paper effect of penetration of wind turbine with DFIG on stability performance of the IEEE 9 bus and 39 bus sy...

This paper presents the state space modelling of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) for small signal stability assessment. The gains of PI controller in torque and voltage control loop of rotor-side converter (RSC) are optimized by particle swarm optimization (PSO) to improve the dynamic performance of DFIG. These optimized parameters results in improved damping of DFIG and minimizes the osc...

The Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is getting wider popularity due to its ability to adapt with variable wind speed and to capture more wind energy. Though DFIG has a salient feature of the fault ride through capability, this is not sufficient to preserve the necessity of the grid code when the DFIG system is connected with the grid. To accomplish this goal, a DC resistive superconductin...

This paper presents the operation of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) with Fuzzy Logic Control & an integrated active filter capabilities using grid-side converter (GSC). The main contribution of this work lies in the control of GSC using Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) for supplying harmonics in addition to its slip power transfer. The rotor-side converter (RSC) is used for attaining maximum po...

Abstract—This paper presents a power control for a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) using in Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) connected to the grid. The proposed control strategy employs two nonlinear controllers, Backstipping (BSC) and slidingmode controller (SMC) scheme to directly calculate the required rotor control voltage so as to eliminate the instantaneous errors of active and ...

The aim of this paper is to propose different methods of control for a Doubly-Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) used in wind energy conversion systems.
