Modal Analysis of Induction Generator Based Wind Farm Connected to Series-compensated Transmission Line and Line Commutated Converter High-Voltage DC Transmission Line

This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the potential of sub-synchronous resonance in induction generator based wind farms connected to a line commutated converter based high-voltage DC transmission line. Since series-compensated lines are also known to cause sub-synchronous resonance in induction generator based (Type 1) wind farms, this study also considers a series-compensated line in parallel with the high-voltage DC line for the investigation of sub-synchronous resonance potential. The CIGRE benchmark high-voltage DC system and the IEEE first benchmark system are considered as the study system components. A linearized state-space model of the study system is developed for eigenvalue analysis followed by participation factor analysis. A sensitivity study of the sub-synchronous resonance modes with respect to variation in different model parameters, such as rectifier firing angle, DC line power flow, and series compensation level, is also reported. It is found that the high-voltage DC rectifier station current regulator does not interact with any of the sub-synchronous modes of the wind farm. However, in the event that the high-voltage DC line is blocked during a contingency, the wind farm will operate radially with the series-compensated line and may experience sub-synchronous resonance oscillation due to the induction generator effect.

Transient Behavior Analysis of Induction Generator at Three-Phase Fault Condition

In recent years, renewable energy generation has been coming up for effective use of natural energy, such as wind energy. Induction generators consisting squirrel-cage rotors are widely used as wind generators because of their salient features like robust rotor design, simplicity in the construction, maintenance free operation, etc. In this paper, it is derived that the transient current, electromechanical torque, and active power taking into account rotor speed change of induction generators at three-phase fault conditions. The output equations of the induction generator has nonlinearity, and the speed-time characteristic in a fault period is also expressed by the nonlinear equation. The approximation to derive analytical formulas for transient conditions is proposed, and the transient behavior of the induction generator is analyzed by the developed equations. The simulation block diagram in MATLAB/SIMULINK is constituted using the system equation in consideration of the nonlinearity of the induction generator. The simulation results obtained from each theoretical analysis are in close agreement with that of results obtained using MATLAB/SIMULINK simulation. Furthermore, theoretical discussion also developed to determine the fault phase angle and the time at which maximum transient currents flow in the system.

Transient current analysis of induction generators for wind power generating system

AbstractIn this paper we present a transient current analysis of induction generators used in a wind power system before and after three‐phase fault conditions. First, the basic equations of an induction generator connected to an infinite bus are developed and then transient current analysis formulas are derived for a three‐phase fault before and after fault clearance. We also determine the initial phase angle for the three‐phase fault or the restoration phase angle of the power supply voltages and the time at which the maximum or minimum transient currents flow in the system. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Solid-State Control of a Grid Connected Induction Generator

This paper presents complete analysis of induction generators linked to the network through transistorized AC voltage controller. Three different control strategies are investigated, and various performance characteristics have been computed. The generator performance has been determined with the help of a novel abcdq circuit model. The model possesses the advantage of both the dq and direct phase models.
