In the last thirty years quantity of wind electricity generation has grown significantly due to its high-power density [...]

Wind energy is often installed in rural, remote areas characterized by weak, unbalanced power transmission grids. In induction wind generators, unbalanced three phase stator voltages cause a number of problems, including overheating and stress on the mechanical components from torque pulsations. Therefore, beyond a certain amount of unbalance (for example 6%), induction wind generators are swit...

Abstract This paper presents the performance evaluation of Doubly-Fed Induction Generator Using Combined Vector Control and Direct Power Control Method. Combined vector and direct power control (CVDPC) is used for the rotor side converter (RSC) of double-fed induction generators (DFIGs). The control system is according a direct current control by selecting suitable voltage vectors from a switch...

Energy is one of the most prominent factors in shaping the civilization of today. Under consideration for nonconventional energy source wind energy has turned out to be a leading source of energy. In recent years there has been a significant global commitment to develop a clean and economical alternative sustainable power source especially from wind. In this field of development wound rotor ind...

This paper describes the dynamic behaviour of a doubly-fed induction machine, operating with wind turbine. The rotor circuit of the machine consists only of a generator-side converter working under abnormal condition at stator side (fault condition and voltage drop take place in transmission lines of the grid system). The induction machine model is based on the stationary reference frame and th...

The effect of wind generator on sub-synchronous resonance (SSR) is being interested by increasing penetration of wind turbine in power systems,. Purpose of this article is to analyze SSR in a wind farm based on doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) which is connected to compensating series grid. A dynamic model for analysis of induction generator effect and Torsional Interaction (TI) has been u...

In this paper the Space Vector Control Scheme is implemented for a Wind Energy System using Three Level Impedance Source Inverter (ZSI). The wind energy system uses a Self Excited Induction generator (SEIG) which is the most emerging application in the field of Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS). The proposed system is modelled with a generator-side Diode Bridge Rectifier and a Stand-Alone si...

A smart pitch control strategy for a variable speed doubly fed wind generation system is presented in this article. Nonlinear as well as linearized dynamic models of the wind system pitch controller and the doubly fed induction generator including the drive train are developed. A PI controller is employed to generate the appropriate pitch angle for varying wind speed conditions. An adaptive art...
