This paper have studied the dynamic of a 2.0 MW Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) during a severe voltage sag. Using the dynamic model of a DFIG, it was possible to determine the current, Electromagnetic Force and flux behavior during three-phase symmetrical voltage dip. Among the technologies of wind turbines the DFIG is widely employed; however, this machine is extremely susceptible to di...

This paper deals with a protection and control strategy to enhance the low voltage ride through capability of a wind turbine driven doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). As the wind power penetration continues to increase, wind turbines are required to provide Low Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) capability. Crowbars are commonly used to protect the power converters during voltage dips and their ma...

The paper presents a current controlled High Frequency AC (HFAC) link based on Matrix Converter (MC) to interface a photovoltaic (PV) system with the grid. The proposed switching scheme for the MC is based on the hysteresis current control and the sign of the input voltage waveform. A strategy for controlling the HFAC link converter to extract the maximum power by regulating the terminal voltag...

Abstract: Fast control DC-link voltage is the key to enhance Low-Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) for the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG). When grid voltage dips deeply, by the constraint of the capacity of the grid-side converter and reactive power support by the grid-code required, the active power capacity of the grid-side converter will be reduced. Therefore, it cannot stabilize th...

A doubly-fed induction generator’s (DFIG’s) sensitivity to external faults has motivated researchers to investigate the impact of various grid disturbances, such as voltage sags and short circuit faults, on its low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability. However, no attention has been paid to the impact of internal faults in voltage source converters (VSCs), that interface a DFIG with the grid,...

With the continuously increasing penetration of networked microgrids (MGs) on local utility grid (UG), MGs face challenge to avoid system fault currents during low-voltage ride-through (LVRT). To solve this challenge, an active current limitation (AFCL) method is proposed with three parts: 1) a novel phase angle adjustment (PAA) strategy conducted relieve impact output current; 2) injection (CI...

For grid-connected DFIG-based wind turbine, Fault Ride Through (FRT) or Low Voltage (LVRT) capability is vital problem that need to be improved. This paper proposes an Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) strategy applied Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based Wind turbine (WT), which integrates a Dynamic Restorer (DVR). The DVR connect in series the DFIG output terminal and utility...

The doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind energy conversion system (WECS) suffers from voltage and frequency fluctuations due to the stochastic nature of speed as well nonlinear loads. Moreover, high penetration into power grid is a challenge for its smooth operation. Hence, symmetrical faults are most intense, inflicting stator winding low voltage, disturbing low-voltage ride-throug...

In renewable power generation the wind energy has been noted as the most rapidly growing technology; it attracts interest as one of the most cost-effective ways to generate electricity from renewable sources. Wind generation system has potential application for the grid support. The voltage of the direct driven permanent magnet wind generators (PMSG) is variable due to the intermittent nature o...

In this paper, based on the similarity, in structure and principle, between a grid-connected converter for a direct-driven permanent magnet synchronous generator (D-PMSG) and an active power filter (APF), a new D-PMSG-based wind turbine (WT) system configuration that includes not only an auxiliary converter in parallel with the grid-side converter, but also a coordinated control strategy, is pr...
