AbstractThe strong coupling, multivariate, and nonlinear characteristics of the mathematical model of a doubly‐fed induction generator (DFIG) make it challenging to analyze the bifurcation category of the DFIG. Therefore, in this study, we developed a method for analyzing the DFIG model via topologically equivalent dimensionality reduction in the neighborhood of bifurcation values based on the central manifold theorem and realized the discrimination of the Hopf bifurcation type of the DFIG. We established a complex frequency domain model of the DFIG and then calculated the critical open‐loop gain point using the root trajectory method to obtain the relationship between the critical open‐loop gain point and Hopf bifurcation. Thereafter, we performed topological equivalence dimensionality reduction in the neighborhood of the DFIG bifurcation values based on the central manifold theorem. Subsequently, the Hopf bifurcation type of the system was determined using the stability index (first Lyapunov exponent) of the Hopf bifurcation. Finally, a nonlinear time‐domain simulation was used to verify that the four and two‐dimensional DFIGs generate a stable limit cycle by supercritical Hopf bifurcation under the tuning parameter. The results indicated that the proposed method was feasible and effective in the neighborhood of bifurcation values in the state parameter space of DFIG, which provides a theoretical basis for the control of Hopf bifurcation of the DFIG.
