Improved Power Pulsation Suppression of DFIG for Wind Shear and Tower Shadow Effects

摘要

This paper analyzes and simulates wind shear and tower shadow effects in doubly-fed induction generators, which are known to induce a low-frequency oscillation. Such oscillation is called a 3p oscillation, which can cause shaft torsion load aggravation and shaft torque oscillation, it inevitably lead to electromagnetic torque and power fluctuation in the generator and further affect the whole wind power system. By analyzing a two-mass model, it can be known that a flexible drive train has a low-damping characteristic and an amplification of the input of low-frequency wind torque disturbances. Based on this point, this paper presents a new control scheme to restrain 3p oscillation is presented, which is a damping torque observation. A novel torque observer is designed to ascertain the required damping torque. A small-signal model is established for the system and used to analyze the system's static and dynamic characteristics. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is finally verified by simulation and experimental results.
