Abstract

This paper presents a novel fault ride-through (FRT) capability with the use of active converters (Vienna rectifier-I and five-level three-phase modular multilevel converter (MMC)) integrated with permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) supplying AC load. The DC-link fault is controlled with the use of fault blocking diode and MMC sub-module (SM) based wind power plant (WPP). A 16 kW, 60 Hz, PMSG and wind turbine (WT) integrated with the machine-side converter (MSC), and grid-side converter (GSC) are utilized as wind farm components, along with direct current (DC) transmission grid. This topology contributes to the stability and reliability of the system by ensuring continuous output power under transient fault conditions. The functional response of the system is presented using power simulator (The PowerSim, Rockville, USA) software to demonstrate the performance of the proposed controller.
