A Continuous Fault Ride-through Scheme for DFIGs Under Commutation Failures in LCC-HVDC Transmission Systems

Experimental and theoretical studies have confirmed that,relative to a one-shot voltage fault,a doubly-fed induction generator(DFIG)will suffer a greater transient impact during continuous voltage faults.This paper presents the design and application of an effective scheme for DFIGs when a commutation failure(CF)occurs in a line-commutated converter based high-voltage direct current(LCC-HVDC)transmission system.First,transient demagnetization control without filters is proposed to offset the electromotive force(EMF)induced by the natural flux and other low-frequency flux components.Then,a rotor-side integrated impedance circuit is designed to limit the rotor overcurrent to ensure that the rotor-side converter(RSC)is controllable.Furthermore,coordinated control of the demagnetization and segmented reactive currents is implemented in the RSC.Comparative studies have shown that the proposed scheme can limit rotor fault currents and effectively improve the continuous fault ride-through capability of DFIGs.

Application of MMC with Embedded Energy Storage for Overvoltage Suppression and Fault Ride-through Improvement in Series LCCMMC Hybrid HVDC System

The series line-commutated converter(LCC)and modular multilevel converter(MMC)hybrid high-voltage direct current(HVDC)system provides a more economical and flexible alternative for ultra-HVDC(UHVDC)transmission,which is the so-called Baihetan-Jiangsu HVDC(BJ-HVDC)project of China.In one LCC and two MMCs(1+2)operation mode,the sub-module(SM)capacitors suffer the most rigorous overvoltage induced by three-phase-to-ground fault at grid-side MMC and valve-side single-phase-to-ground fault in internal MMC.In order to suppress such huge overvoltage,this paper demonstrates a novel alternative by employing the MMC-based embedded battery energy storage system(MMC-BESS).Firstly,the inducements of SM overvoltage are analyzed.Then,coordinated with MMC-BESS,new fault ride-through(FRT)strategies are proposed to suppress the overvoltage and improve the FRT capability.Finally,several simulation scenarios are carried out on PSCAD/EMTDC.The overvoltage suppression is verified against auxiliary device used in the BJ-HVDC project in a monopolar BJ-HVDC system.Further,the proposed FRT strategies are validated in the southern Jiangsu power grid of China based on the planning data in the summer of 2025.Simulation results show that the MMC-BESS and proposed FRT strategies could effectively suppress the overvoltage and improve the FRT capability.

Fault ride-through capability improvement in a DFIG-based wind turbine using modified ADRC

In this paper,an overview of several strategies for fault ride-through(FRT)capability improvement of a doubly-fed induction generator(DFIG)-based wind turbine is presented.Uncertainties and parameter variations have adverse effects on the performance of these strategies.It is desirable to use a control method that is robust to such distur-bances.Auto disturbance rejection control(ADRC)is one of the most common methods for eliminating the effects of disturbances.To improve the performance of the conventional ADRC,a modified ADRC is introduced that is more robust to disturbances and offers better responses.The non-derivability of the fal function used in the conventional ADRC degrades its efficiency,so the modified ADRC uses alternative functions that are derivable at all points,i.e.,the odd trigonometric and hyperbolic functions(arcsinh,arctan,and tanh).To improve the effciency of the proposed ADRC,fuzzy logic and fractional-order functions are used simultaneously.In fuzzy fractional-order ADRC(FFOADRC),all disturbances are evaluated using a nonlinear fractional-order extended state observer(NFESO).The performance of the suggested structure is investigated in MATLAB/Simulink.The simulation results show that during disturbances such as network voltage sag/swell,using the modified ADRCs leads to smaller fluctuations in stator flux amplitude and DC-link voltage,lower variations in DFIG velocity,and lower total harmonic distortion(THD)of the stator current.This demonstrates the superiority over conventional ADRC and a proportional-integral(PI)controller.Also,by chang-ing the crowbar resistance and using the modified ADRCs,the peak values of the waveforms(torque and currents)can be controlled at the moment of fault occurrence with no significant distortion.

Dual-mode Switching Fault Ride-through Control Strategy for Self-synchronous Wind Turbines

The installed capacity of renewable energy generation has continued to grow rapidly in recent years along with the global energy transition towards a 100%renewable-based power system.At the same time,the grid-connected large-scale renewable energy brings significant challenges to the safe and stable operation of the power system due to the loss of synchronous machines.Therefore,self-synchronous wind turbines have attracted wide attention from both academia and industry.However,the understanding of the physical operation mechanisms of self-synchronous wind turbines is not clear.In particular,the transient characteristics and dynamic processes of wind turbines are fuzzy in the presence of grid disturbances.Furthermore,it is difficult to design an adaptive fault ride-through(FRT)control strategy.Thus,a dual-mode switching FRT control strategy for self-synchronous wind turbines is developed.Two FRT control strategies are used.In one strategy,the amplitude and phase of the internal potential are directly calculated according to the voltage drop when a minor grid fault occurs.The other dual-mode switching control strategy in the presence of a deep grid fault includes three parts:vector control during the grid fault,fault recovery vector control,and self-synchronous control.The proposed control strategy can significantly mitigate transient overvoltage,overcurrent,and multifrequency oscillation,thereby resulting in enhanced transient stability.Finally,simulation results are provided to validate the proposed control strategy.

Enhanced AC Fault Ride-through Control for MMC-integrated System Based on Active PCC Voltage Drop

When a renewable energy station(RES)connects to the rectifier station(RS)of a modular multilevel converterbased high-voltage direct current(MMC-HVDC)system,the voltage at the point of common coupling(PCC)is determined by RS control methods.For example,RS control may become saturated under fault,and causes the RS to change from an equivalent voltage source to an equivalent current source,making fault analysis more complicated.In addition,the grid code of the fault ride-through(FRT)requires the RES to output current according to its terminal voltage.This changes the fault point voltage and leads to RES voltage regulation and current redistribution,resulting in fault response interactions.To address these issues,this study describes how an MMC-integrated system has five operation modes and three common characteristics under the duration of the fault.The study also reveals several instances of RS performance degradation such as AC voltage loop saturation,and shows that RS power reversal can be significantly improved.An enhanced AC FRT control method is proposed to achieve controllable PCC voltage and continuous power transmission by actively reducing the PCC voltage amplitude.The robustness of the method is theoretically proven under parameter variation and operation mode switching.Finally,the feasibility of the proposed method is verified through MATLAB/Simulink results.

A Cooperative Approach of Frequency Regulation Through Virtual Inertia Control and Enhancement of Low Voltage Ride-through in DFIG-based Wind Farm

Doubly-fed induction generator(DFIG)-based wind farms(WFs)are interfaced with power electronic converters.Such interfaces are attributed to the low inertia generated in the WFs under high penetration and that becomes prevalent in a fault scenario.Therefore,transient stability enhancement along with frequency stability in DFIG-based WFs is a major concern in the present scenario.In this paper,a cooperative approach consisting of virtual inertia control(VIC)and a modified grid-side converter(GSC)approach for low voltage ride-through(LVRT)is proposed to achieve fault ride-through(FRT)capabilities as per the grid code requirements(GCRs)while providing frequency support to the grid through a synthetic inertia.The proposed approach provides LVRT and reactive power compensation in the system.The participation of the VIC in a rotor-side converter(RSC)provides frequency support to the DFIG-based WFs.The combined approach supports active power compensation and provides sufficient kinetic energy support to the system in a contingency scenario.Simulation studies are carried out in MATLAB/Simulink environment for symmetrical and unsymmetrical faults.The superiority of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through analysis of the performance of the scheme and that of a series resonance bridge-type fault current limiter(SR-BFCL).

Susceptibility of Large Wind Power Plants to Voltage Disturbances-Recommendations to Stakeholders

Sufficient fault ride-through(FRT)of large wind power plants(WPPs)is essential for the operation security of transmission system.The majority of studies on FRT do not include all disturbances originating in the transmission system or the disturbances irrelevant to the operation security.Based on the knowledge of power quality,this paper provides a guide to stakeholders in different aspects of FRT for wind turbines(WTs)and WPPs.This paper details the characteristics of the most common disturbances originated in the transmission system,how they propagate to the WT terminals,and how they impact the dynamic behavior of a large WPP.This paper shows that the details of the voltage disturbances,not only in the transmission system,but also at the WT terminals,should be taken into consideration.Moreover,a detailed representation or characterization of voltage dips is important for FRT studies,despite that the simplified models used in the literature are insufficient.This paper strongly recommends that distinct events and additional characteristics such as the phase-angle jump and oscillations in the transition segments should be considered in FRT analysis.
