Wind is the most reliable, clean and fast-developing renewable energy source. The DFIG-based variable speed wind turbine system is now the most popular in wind power industry. With power being so in-demanding, a large wind farm needs to be developed to produce more power from a stable system. But before such a large wind farm is installed, better understanding is needed of the system's intrinsic dynamic behavior, range of stability region and parametric effects on system stability. Hence, a small wind farm with two identical DFIG-based wind turbines connected to a grid network has been considered for this study. A detailed non-linear mathematical model of grid-connected single DFIG-based wind turbine system as well as a grid-connected multi DFIG-based wind turbine system in a dq-frame has been developed. Linearization of these non-linear mathematical models for both the systems has been performed from the set of developed non-linear equations. These two linearized dynamic models provide an analytical platform for determining the robustness and stability of the two systems. The linearized models are then verified with the simulation results of non-linear systems designed in a PSCAD/EMTDC environment. This step is needed to check the performance accuracy of the linearized models. The small-signal stability, the system's parametric effects on stability and the modal analysis of two developed linearized models have been studied. Participation factor analysis has been employed to determine system parametric effects on each eigenmode. The intrinsic dynamic behavior of a single wind turbine connected to a grid and multi wind turbines connected to a grid (a small wind farm) are observed to be identical in nature at the same operating conditions and system parameters.

Wind power penetration is rapidly increasing in today's energy generation industry. In particular, the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) has become a very popular option in wind farms, due to its cost advantage compared with fully rated converter-based systems. Wind farms are frequently located in remote areas, far from the bulk of electric power users, and require long transmission lines to connect to the grid. Series capacitive compensation of DFIG-based wind farm is an economical way to increase the power transfer capability of the transmission line connecting the wind farm to the grid. For example, a study performed by ABB reveals that increasing the power transfer capability of an existing transmission line from 1300 MW to 2000 MW using series compensation is 90% less expensive than building a new transmission line. However, a factor hindering the extensive use of series capacitive compensation is the potential risk of subsynchronous resonance (SSR). The SSR is a condition where the wind farm exchanges energy with the electric network, to which it is connected, at one or more natural frequencies of the electric or mechanical part of the combined system, comprising the wind farm and the network, and the frequency of the exchanged energy is below the fundamental frequency of the system. This oscillatory phenomenon may cause severe damage in the wind farm, if not prevented. Therefore, this book studies the SSR phenomenon in a capacitive series compensated wind farm. A DFIG-based wind farm, which is connected to a series compensated transmission line, is considered as a case study. The book consists of two main parts: Small-signal modeling of DFIG for SSR analysis: This part presents a step-by-step tutorial on modal analysis of a DFIG-based series compensated wind farm using Matlab/Simulink. The model of the system includes wind turbine aerodynamics, a 6th order induction generator, a 2nd order two-mass shaft system, a 4th order series compensated transmission line, a 4th order rotor-side converter (RSC) controller and a 4th order grid-side converter (GSC) controller, and a 1st order DC-link model. The relevant modes are identified using participation factor analysis. Definition of the SSR in DFIG-based wind farms: This part mainly focuses on the identification and definition of the main types of SSR that occur in DFIG wind farms, namely: (1) induction generator effect (SSIGE), (2) torsional interactions (SSTI), and (3) control interactions (SSCI).

Due to random variations of wind speed, output power of a wind turbine generator fluctuates continuously. The power and voltage quality of a wind power system consisting of Induction Generator (IG) based wind turbine (IGWT), IGWT with voltage control device and Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based wind turbine (DFIGWT) are presented in this work. Blade pitch angle control to limit the output power at turbine's nominal power is also presented. It is reported that the DFIG-based wind turbine system can smooth the output power and also maintain the terminal voltage at a desired level, as DFIG with two back-to-back voltage source converters that use IGBTs and a capacitor acts as the DC voltage source has real and reactive power control abilities. The comparative results show that DFIGWT-based wind farm (DFIG_WF) has the best response, IGWT-based wind farm (IGWF) with voltage control device has better and IGWF has the worst response. Results indicate that the fluctuation of output power at higher rated rotor speed (near turbine's base wind speed) and terminal voltage are almost nil for DFIG_WF. All the analysis were carried out using SimPowerSystem tool box in MATLAB.

Due to the continuing growth of the installed power capacity of wind farms worldwide, the grid codes define specific requirements to the connection of wind turbines to the grid. One of these requirements is the ride-through fault capability (RTFC), that is, the equipment capability of continuing operating during voltage sags. This book presents the analysis of the behavior of the doubly-fed induction generator technology (DFIG) during balanced and unbalanced voltage sag and proposes novel control strategies to improve the RTFC. The system behavior analysis and the strategies validation are performed using mathematical models in time and frequency domains, simulation results with a Simulink/Matlab model (2MW) and experimental results in two scaled test benches (4kW and 25kW). The limitations for the operation of the strategies are also analyzed. The main objectives of this work are to point the system weaknesses and to contribute to the study of low voltage ride-through strategies (LVRT) of the DFIG technology.
