The Stability Analysis For Wind Turbines With Doubly Fed Induction Generators, Baohua Dong

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

The quickly increasing, widespread use of wind generation around the world reduces carbon emissions, decreases the effects of global warming, and lowers dependence on fossil fuels. However, the growing penetration of wind power requires more effort to maintain power systems stability.

This dissertation focuses on developing a novel algorithm which dynamically optimizes the proportional-integral (PI) controllers of a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) driven by a wind turbine to increase the transient performance based on small signal stability analysis.

Firstly, the impact of wind generation is introduced. The stability of power systems with wind generation is described, including the different …
