摘要
Power generation and grid stability have become key issues in the last decade. The high penetration of large capacity wind generation into the electric power grid has led to serious concerns about its influence on the dynamic behavior of power systems. The low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability of wind turbines during grid faults is one of the core requirements to ensure stability in the power grid during transient conditions. The doubly-fed induction generators (DFIGs) offer several advantages when utilized in wind turbines, but discussions about their LVRT capabilities are limited. This paper presents a comprehensive study about the LVRT of grid-connected DFIG-based wind turbines. It provides a detailed investigation of the transient characteristics and the dynamic behavior of DFIGs during symmetrical and asymmetrical grid voltage sags. A detailed theoretical study, supported by computer simulations, is provided. This paper also provides a new rotor-side control scheme for DFIG-based wind turbines to enhance its LVRT capability during severe grid voltage sags. The proposed control strategy focuses on mitigating the rotor-side voltage and current transients during abnormal grid conditions, without any additional cost or reliability issues. As a result, the DFIG performance is improved and utility company standards are fulfilled. Computer simulations are used to verify the expanded ride-through capability of the novel strategy and its effective performance compared to the conventional control schemes.
