As the number of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)- based wind-turbine systems continues to increase, wind turbines are required to provide Low Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) capability, especially under the condition of grid voltage dips. This paper, depending on the operating characteristics of doubly-fed induction generator during grid faults ,deals with a protection and control strategy on rotor-side converter (RSC) to enhance the low voltage ride through capability of a wind turbine driven doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). The simulation and experiment studies demonstrate the correctness of the developed model and the effectiveness of the control strategy for DFIG-based wind-turbine systems under such adverse grid conditions.

This paper proposes a low voltage ride through (LVRT) scheme of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based on the supercapacitors energy storage. The novel control strategy of the bi-directional converter and the grid side converter is established. Simulation model of the DFIG system is developed. Simulation results show that the presented scheme can efficiently reduce the DC-link overvoltage, supply reactive power to the power system through grid side converter, and help grid recovery under system fault, improving the LVRT capability of the system.

Low voltage ride through (LVRT) behavior is one of the key indices of wind turbine grid-integration evaluation. The key electric components of wind turbine, such as converter, control system had been researched. While other components of wind turbine, such as the rotor arrester, are also non-ignorable. Firstly, overvoltage of rotor during the LVRT is analyzed and one failure test has been presented because of rotor arrester performance. Finally, the rotor arrester has impact not only on the LVRT ability of wind turbine, but also damage to other hardware by on-site testing.

Crowbar Protection

The energy production future is dominated by renewable energy sources driven by global warming problems and aiming at the reduction of fossil fuel dependence. Wind energy is becoming competitive with fossil fuels considering its less price and less CO2 emission production. Wind turbines consist of different types, including Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) which is a variable speed wind turbine and operates at varying speeds corresponding to the varying wind speeds from the cut-in speed through the rated wind speed to the cut-out speed. In the case of grid failure, the network voltage drops; consequently, the rotor current and DC link voltage increase which leads to damage of the rotor windings and power electronics device. Some protections are applied to the machine in order to help the Low Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) ability of the doubly fed induction generator. In this root, the crowbar protection circuit is used widely in wind power plants. However, crowbar protection should be sized carefully due to its effects on both DC link voltage and rotor currents. In this paper, a doubly fed induction generator with crowbar protection is studied and the optimum value for the crowbar protection is derived; then, a Simulink model of a doubly fed induction generator protected by a crowbar protection is developed and used to analyze the effect of crowbar protection value on the DC link voltage and rotor currents. The results show a significant improvement in the LVRT ability of the DFIG.
