Enhanced control of DFIG-used back-to-back PWM VSC under unbalanced grid voltage conditions

Abstract: This paper presents a unified positive- and negative-sequence dual-dq dynamic model of wind-turbine driven doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) under unbalanced grid voltage conditions. Strategies for enhanced control and operation of a DFIG-used back-to-back (BTB) PWM voltage source converter (VSC) are proposed. The modified control design for the grid-side converter in the stationary αβ frames diminishes the amplitude of DC-link voltage ripples of twice the grid frequency, and the two proposed control targets for the rotor-side converter are alternatively achieved, which, as a result, improve the fault-ride through (FRT) capability of the DFIG based wind power generation systems during unbalanced network supply. A complete unbalanced control scheme with both grid- and rotor-side converters included is designed. Finally, simulation was carried out on a 1.5 MW wind-turbine driven DFIG system and the validity of the developed unified model and the feasibility of the proposed control strategies are all confirmed by the simulated results.

Key words: Unbalanced grid voltage, Doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), Back-to-back (BTB), Fault-ride through (FRT), Voltage source converter (VSC)
