Abstract

In the wind energy generation system, the brushless doubly-fed induction machine (BDFIM) has shown significant application potential, since it eliminates the electric brush and slip ring. However, the complicated rotor structure increases the control difficulty, especially resulting in complicated coupled terms in the current sub-system, which deteriorates the dynamic performance and reduces the system robustness. In order to address the problems caused by complex coupled terms, an internal model current control strategy is presented for the BDFIM, and an active damping term is designed for suppressing the disturbance caused by the total resistance. The proposed method simplifies the controller parameters design, and it achieves the fast-dynamic response and the good tracking performance, as well as good robustness. On the other hand, the feedforward term composed by the grid voltage is added to the internal model controller in order to suppress the disturbance when the symmetrical grid voltage sag happens. Finally, the simulation and experimental results verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Summary

Introduction

The Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) has been widely used in wind energy generation systems (WEGs), because the capability of its power converter is only about one third the wind turbine power rating [1], but the slip rings and electro-brushes of the DFIG lead to frequent maintenance and increases the system cost, especially for offshore wind farms [2]. Machine (BDFIM) has the outstanding features of no slip rings and electro-brushes, resulting in more robustness and durability than the DFIG [3,4,5]. In terms of the BDFIM control methods, the scalar control has no feedback link and it is difficult to obtain a fast dynamic response [10]. The direct power control [11] and the indirect control scheme [12]
