A Low Voltage Ride Through Strategy of DFIG based on Explicit Model Predictive Control

摘要

In this paper, an improved demagnetization control, based on Explicit Model Predictive Control (E-MPC) is proposed to improve Low Voltage Ride Through (LVRT) capability of Doubly Fed Induction Generators (DFIGs). By injecting an additional rotor current component, the demagnetization control can efficiently eliminate the free and negative flux to avoid saturation of the rotor converter. The conventional demagnetization control is based on fixed scaling factors, whose control performance can't be guaranteed for different fault conditions. The proposed E-MPC approach can fully explore the potential of rotor side converter. Besides, the control parameters of E-MPC are derived offline and very efficient for online control. In addition, the proposed E-MPC structure is simple and easy to be implemented. The mechanism of proposed E-MPC is presented in detail and verified in Matlab/Simulink. The results show that the proposed control scheme has a good performance and can improve the LVRT capability of DFIGs under various fault conditions, especially unbalanced faults.
