Abstract

Objective: To address the problems of various FRT (fault ride through) schemes in DFIG (doubly fed induction generator) systems, especially their applicability under different voltage sags, a combination scheme of an MSVC (minimized series voltage compensator) and FCL (fault current limiter) is proposed.

Methods: Based on the analysis of the mathematical model of the DFIG and considering the capacity and volume in the process of practical engineering, the application structure and specific control strategy of an MSVC in DFIG systems are designed on the stator side, and the application effect is analyzed theoretically. Simultaneously, the application structure and control strategy of the FCL is proposed on the rotor side, and the application effect of the combination scheme is theoretically deduced and analyzed. Moreover, the simulation model is built on the MATLAB/Simulink platform.

Results: The simulation results show that the scheme can quickly and effectively recover the fault voltage of the DFIG under different voltage sag degrees and has better dynamic performance. At the same time, it can effectively limit the fault current and suppress the DC-link voltage of the rotor side, and the transition process is relatively stable.

Conclusion: The purpose of improving the FRT capability of the DFIG system is realized.
