Abstract

The modelling of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbine in large power system dynamic simulation software is discussed, and the steady state equivalent circuit and reduced order dynamic DFIG models are described. A direct solution method for obtaining injected rotor voltages, which satisfy the dynamic model control objectives, is derived from the approximate steady state model. An initialisation procedure is given for the reduced order dynamic DFIG machine model. Simulation results are presented from initialised dynamic DFIG wind turbine models. PQ and PV bus representations of the DFIG for load flow studies are compared and simulated with typical turbine and network data for wind farm installations.
