Modeling and Stability Analysis of a DFIG-Based Wind-Power Generator Interfaced With a Series-Compensated Line

This paper deals with modeling and stability analysis of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind-power unit that is interfaced with the grid via a series-compensated transmission line. A detailed mathematical model is developed in this paper that takes into account dynamics of the flux observer, phase-locked loop (PLL), controllers of the power-electronic converter, and wind turbine. Using the model and based on eigenvalue/participation-factor analysis, the system and controller parameters that substantially influence the system stability have been identified. The developed model is validated through a comprehensive set of simulation studies in the Matlab/Simulink and PSCAD/EMTDC software environments.
