A Dynamic Reactive Power Control for DFIG Wind Turbines andIts Impacts on Distribution Protections
摘要
With the increasing penetration of distributed generations(DGs)into power grids,the fault ride-throughability of DG is attracting more and more attention.Recent grid codes require a DG to maintain its connection withthe grid during grid faults and to play an active role in the recovery of grid voltage.This paper chooses the doubly- fed induction generator(DFIG)as the typical wind turbine for study.Firstly,a dynamic reactive power controlstrategy is proposed to improve the fault ride-through characteristic of a DFIG.The contributions of a DFIG to thefault current under the dynamic reactive power control and the Crowbar control are analyzed and compared based onthe mathematical expressions and control behaviors.The impacts of a DFIG under two control strategies ondistribution protections are discussed.Studies show that although a DFIG under the dynamic reactive power controlprovides more fault current component than one under the Crowbar control,its impacts on distribution protectionsare acceptable.Finally,a10kV distribution network with a DFIG is simulated in PowerFactory DIgSILENT.Thesimulation results prove the correctness of above theoretical analysis.
