New Installations - 2005
• Most of new installations continue to be in
US and Europe.

Wind Energy Overview
• Wind generators and farms are getting larger.
• 5 MW wind generators are now available with 7 MW in the
works.

Wind Generator Topologies
•
•
•
•
Direct connected.
Simplest.
Requires switch to prevent motoring.
Draws reactive power with no reactive control.
Wind Generator Topologies
• Doubly-fed.
• The doubly-fed topology is the most common for high power.
• Rotor control allows for speed control of around 25% of
•
•
synchronous.
Rotor converter rating is only around 25% of total generator rating.
Reactive power control.
Wind Generator Topologies
•
•
•
•
•
Full-rated converter connected.
Lower cost generator than DFIG. Lower maintenance.
Converter must be full-rated.
Full-rated converter allows for complete speed and reactive power control.
Could also be used with a synchronous generator.
Wind Generator Topologies
•
•
•
•
•
•
Direct-drive.
Eliminate the gearbox by using a very-high pole synchronous generator.
Resulting generator design is relatively wide and flat.
No gearbox issues.
Full-rated converter is required.
Full speed and reactive power control.
Wind Energy Issues
• Wind is intermittent
– Limits wind’s percentage of the energy mix
• Wind energy is often located in rural areas
– Rural grids are often weak and unstable, and prone to
voltage sags, faults, and unbalances
• Unbalanced grid voltages cause many problems
for induction generators
– Torque pulsations
– Reactive power pulsations
– Unbalanced currents

•
M and at NTNU in Trondheim, Norway on a Fulbright
scholarship
Doubly-fed induction generators are the machines of
choice for large wind turbines
The objective is to develop a control methodology for a
DFIG that can achieve:
– Variable speed and reactive power control
– Compensation of problems caused by an unbalanced grid
• Reduce torque pulsations
• Reduce reactive power pulsations
• Balance stator currents

• Higher Cp means
more energy

DFIG Control
• Control is done by transforming three-phase to
two-phase
DFIG Control – Machine Flux
Oriented
• q-axis controls reactive power (flux)
• d-axis controls torque
DFIG Control – Grid Flux Oriented
• Align d-axis with
voltage, instead of
flux
• Easier, more stable
• d-axis -> torque
• q-axis -> reactive
power (Qs)
DFIG Control
• d-axis controls torque, hence speed
DFIG Control
• q-axis controls reactive power (Qs)
DFIG Control – Stability
• DFIGs naturally
have complex
poles near the
RHP, near the
grid frequency
(ird/vrd transfer function)

3 Phase Voltage Unbalance
• Causes torque puslations, reactive power
pulsations, unbalanced currents, possible
over heating
• Unbalance can be seen as the addition of
a negative sequence
• Unbalance factor (VUF, IUF) is the
magnitude of the negative sequence over
the magnitude of the positive sequence
Unbalance – Second Harmonic

Unbalance Compensation
• Intentionally injecting a disturbance with an auxiliary
controller to drive the disturbance to zero
d-axis Inner Loop
