Doubly Fed of Induction Generators Wind Turbine Frequency Control Based on Power Curve of Inertia Control and Pitch Angle Control

Abstract:

With many grid-connected wind farms of Doubly-fed Induction Generator (DFIG) type taking the palce of conventional synchronous generators, the frequency control ability of the system will decrease. But the existing control strategy based on maximum wind power tracking of DFIG can not response to the deviation of the system frequency. This paper proposes a new hybrid frequency control strategy based on the research of the frequency response to the doubly fed induction wind turbine curves switching inertia control loop and the ability for the pitch angle control participating in the system primary frequency modulation. The strategy reduces the initial rate of change and the steady state error of system frequency with the combined action of the curves switching inertial control and pitch frequency control. Finally, the simulation results of the two areas with four generators validate the effectiveness of the strategy.
