Sub-Synchronous Resonance damping via Doubly Fed Induction Generator

摘要

Interests of low frequency oscillation damping with the Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIC) has been increased recently. In addition, it is widely accepted that, the Sub-Synchronous Resonance (SSR) is another unfavorable dynamical phenomenon in power systems. In this study, the implementation of the DFIG in SSR mitigation will be investigated. The IEEE second benchmark model aggregated with a DFIG based wind farm is employed as the case study. Two different control methodologies are proposed: a Fuzzy Logic Damping Controller (FLDC) and a conventional damping controller (CDC) that are added to the main control loop of the DFIG in order to damp the SSR. To validate the results of SSR suppression via DFIG, several case studies are introduced based on changing the operation point of the system and duration of the fault. It has been shown that the DFIG can damp the SSR through both proposed methodologies, but when the system operating point or fault duration is changed, the FLDC can present a cost-effective solution for SSR damping. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), simulation results, and a method based on performance index (PI) are conducted to compare two controllers through various cases in Matlab.
