The share of this type of energy in the network is becoming increasingly important. The objective of this work is to present the modeling and control strategy of a grid connected wind power generation scheme using a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) driven by the rotor. This paper is to present the complete modeling and simulation of a wind turbine driven DFIG in the second mode of operating (the wind turbine pitch control is deactivated). It will introduce the vector control, which makes it possible to control independently the active and reactive power exchanged between the stator of the generator and the grid, based on vector control concept (with stator flux or voltage orientation) with classical PI controllers. Various simula- tion tests are conducted to observe the system behavior and evaluate the performance of the control for some optimization criteria (energy efficiency and the robustness of the control). It is also interesting to play on the quality of electric power by controlling the reactive power exchanged with the grid, which will facilitate making a local correction of power factor.展开更多

Thus, it is important that wind turbines also contribute to system frequency control. This paper examines the dynamic contribution of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind turbine in system frequency regulation. The modified inertial support scheme is proposed which helps the DFIG to provide the short term transient active power support to the grid during transients and arrests the fall in frequency. The frequency deviation is considered by the controller to provide the inertial control. An additional reference power output is used which helps the DFIG to release kinetic energy stored in rotating masses of the turbine. The optimal speed control parameters have been used for the DFIG to increases its participation in frequency control. The simulations carried out in a two-area interconnected power system demonstrate the contribution of the DFIG in load frequency control.展开更多

The deregulation of power sector has led to the formation of new companies for generation, transmission and distribution of power. The conventional two-area power system is modified to study the effects of the bilateral contracts of companies on the system dynamics. Deregulation creates highly competitive and distributed control environment, and the LFC becomes even more challenging when wind generators are also integrated into the system. The overall inertia of the system reduces, as the wind unit does not provide inertia and isolates from the grid during disturbances. The DFIGs integrated provide inertial support to the system through modified inertial control scheme, and arrests the initial fall in frequency after disturbance. The inertial control responds to frequency deviations, which takes out the kinetic energy of the wind turbine for improving the frequency response of the system. To enhance the participation of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) in the frequency control, optimal values of the speed control parameters of the DFIG-based wind turbine have been obtained using integral square error (ISE) technique. The dynamics of the system have been obtained for a small load perturbation, and for contract violation using fuzzy controller.展开更多

The optimal speed control parameters have been used for the DFIG to increases its participation in frequency control. The simulations carried out in a two-area interconnected power system demonstrate the contribution of the DFIG in load frequency control.

文摘With more and more big wind farms integrating to grid,the faults of doubly fed induction generators(DFIGs)grouping tripped off(GTO)have occurred and bring serious power impacts on the grid.Usually,it was considered that the fault of DFIGs GTO is only related to the low/high voltage disturbances in the grid and manipulated as an electromagnetic transients.But,we discover that the fault of DFIGs GTO are also related to operating condition of DFIGs and schemes of crowbar protection equipped with DFIGs,and it may be extended to an electromechanical transient in some situations.Based on the investigation of the factors related to DFIGs GTO,such as degree of voltage disturbances,operating conditions of DFIGs and schemes of crowbar protection,three types of DFIGs GTOs are classified and corresponding mechanisms are revealed.The calculation methods to confirm the mechanism are established.The effectiveness of the proposed methods are verified by simulating some cases of DFISs GTO.
文摘Among all renewable energies,wind power is rapidly growing,whereby it has the most participation to supply power.Doubly fed induction generator(DFIG)is the most popular wind turbine,as it can play a very significant role to enhance low voltage ride through(LVRT)capability.Ancillary services such as voltage control and reactive power capability are the main topics in wind power control systems that should be handled profoundly and carefully.The lack of reactive power during fault period can result in instability in generators and/or disconnection of the wind turbine from the power system.The main aims of this study are to illustrate the most effective approaches subject to improve the efficiency,stability,and reliability of wind power plant associated with LVRT capability enhancement.This effectiveness and efficiency are demonstrated by,firstly,comparison between all types of wind turbines,focusing on the ancillary services,after the existing advanced control strategies.According to the literature,there is a consensus that modifying converter-based control topology is the most effective approach to enhance LVRT capability in DFIG-based wind turbine(WT).Therefore,an advanced integrated control strategy is designed by considering the effect of the rotor side converter(RSC)and the grid side converter(GSC).A model of the wind power plant is presented based on the control objectives.MATLAB/Simulink is also used to illustrate the effectiveness of the designed algorithm.
文摘This paper presents the analysis of load frequency control (LFC) of a deregulated two-area hydro-thermal power system using fuzzy logic controller, with doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs) integrated into both the control areas. The deregulation of power sector has led to the formation of new companies for generation, transmission and distribution of power. The conventional two-area power system is modified to study the effects of the bilateral contracts of companies on the system dynamics. Deregulation creates highly competitive and distributed control environment, and the LFC becomes even more challenging when wind generators are also integrated into the system. The overall inertia of the system reduces, as the wind unit does not provide inertia and isolates from the grid during disturbances. The DFIGs integrated provide inertial support to the system through modified inertial control scheme, and arrests the initial fall in frequency after disturbance. The inertial control responds to frequency deviations, which takes out the kinetic energy of the wind turbine for improving the frequency response of the system. To enhance the participation of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) in the frequency control, optimal values of the speed control parameters of the DFIG-based wind turbine have been obtained using integral square error (ISE) technique. The dynamics of the system have been obtained for a small load perturbation, and for contract violation using fuzzy controller.
文摘High wind power penetration(WPP)is challenging system frequency stability.As a countermeasure,virtual inertia controls are introduced,utilizing kinetic energy(KE)stored in wind turbine generators(WTGs)for frequency regulation.Without restoration,generation efficiency of WTGs will be degraded after inertia contribution.To counter this issue,we propose an inertia control scheme of a doubly fed induction generator(DFIG),aiming at achieving dynamic inertia recovery regarding both KE and DC link energy.An asymmetrical droop control,referred to as the rate of change of frequency(RoCoF),is proposed for KE management.The upper boundary of droop gain is extended to give full play to converters and is revised,considering the system frequency state,to counter positive feedback issues induced by reversible gain regulation,which is restricted by KE to ensure stable operations as well.The inertial DC energy needed to cooperate with KE control regarding countering small fluctuations,is improved with an orderly recovery behavior.Case studies are conducted under dynamic wind conditions and the results indicate that with our proposed scheme,the ability of dynamic inertia recovery can be obtained,bringing DFIG higher generation efficiency and more adequate operation margin for sustained regulation.Essentially,the inertial frequency response and fluctuation suppression ability is well maintained.
