PSCAD modeling of doubly fed induction generators for wind turbines application

Dunhuang wind farm in Gansu province, China with 237 GW wind energy potential has a great significance for northwest grid in China. In this paper, in line with Hexi 750kV Power Transmission Line Protections project, modeling of different wind turbines are studied. In this research, modeling and analysis of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine applications is investigated. Based on the vector control method, the simulation is executed in PSCAD/EMTDC software and the results show the performance of the system. The data are used based on the real information from the wind farm site. Also, the smart grid roadmap is considered for this wind farm to adjust itself with new situations hence smartening the grid. Furthermore, fault analysis and stability of the system can be feasible.
