Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind farm is today the most widely used concept. This paper presents dynamic response enhancement of DFIG based wind farm under remote fault conditions using the fuzzy logic controller. The goal of the work is to improve the dynamic response of DFIG based wind farm during and after the clearance of fault using the proposed controller. The stability of wind farm during and after the clearance of fault is investigated. The effectiveness of the fuzzy logic controller is then compared with that of a PI controller. The validity of the controllers in restoring the wind farms normal operation after the clearance of fault is illustrated by the simulation results which are carried out using MATLAB/SIMULINK. Simulation results are analyzed under different fault conditions.

This paper proposed a blend of corresponding PIC and FLC for controlling the pitch angle of wind turbine connected to grid. Initially, conventional control methodology is employed to design the PI controller and later on, the concept of fuzzy logic methodology is adapted to analyze the gains of proportional integral controller. Due to versatility of fuzzy logic controller and rugged structure, sturdy nature of proportional integral controller are clubbed together, it provides a virtuous stagnant and dynamic outcomes. The proposed novel technique can be assessed by considering various disturbances such as short circuit network fault. The reenactment after effects of proposed controller is contrasted with proportional integral controller and FLC. From the findings it is shown that the proposed methodology could improve stability even the wind farm is subjected to different operating conditions. Moreover, a performance index in terms of absolute maximum deviations is defined in order to evaluate the adequacy of the proposed controller.

In recent years, applications of facts systems have been developed for the compensation of active and reactive power. Facts systems are electronics devices that are connected to the wind farm. This paper presents the impacts of some of these devices on the stability of a wind farm, especially D-STATCOM, Static Var Compensator and Fuzzy SVC controller. First, a presentation of D-STATCOM, SVC, then fuzzy logic controller. In simulation study, the D-STATCOM ensures the stability of the voltage and current at the point of connection with the electrical grid. Finally, Comparing the SVC to the F-SVC simulations, we notice that the F-SVC is more performed than SVC for the compensation of the active and reactive power.
