Transient modelling of doubly-fed induction generator based wind turbine on full operation condition and rapid starting period based on low voltage ride-through testing

Abstract

Transient simulation model of doubly-fed induction generator-based wind turbine has a complex model structure and considerable control parameters. An accurate simulation model is especially important for studying the static and transient characteristics of doubly-fed induction generator-based wind turbine and the grid-connected system. Based on the measured data of low voltage ride-through testing, the integrated parameter identification method is proposed here. Combined with the time-domain simulation analysis, curve fitting is used to determine the control strategy of doubly-fed induction generator-based wind turbine. The improved genetic algorithm is used to identify the generator parameters, power control parameters, and resistance of Crowbar of doubly-fed induction generator-based wind turbine. Combined with the electrical parameters provided by the wind turbine manufacturer, electromagnetic transient model on full operation condition and rapid starting period, corresponding to a measured doubly-fed induction generator-based wind turbine in West Inner Mongolia Power Grid, is then established, which can operate in the full wind speed range and quickly enter the stable state within 1 s after start-up. Comparison of simulation results and measured data shows that the established electromagnetic transient simulation model using parameters identified by the proposed method can accurately reflect the key characteristics of doubly-fed induction generator-based wind turbine.
