Grid-Voltage-Oriented Sliding Mode Control For Dfig Under Balanced and Unbalanced Grid Faults
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
The basic scheme of the system is display in Fig. 1, the
stator is directly connected to the electric grid, while the rotor
needs a bidirectional power flow between the grid and electric
machine, therefore, back-to-back power converter is used.
Typically, the nominal power of the back-to-back converter is
30% of the generator nominal power. Doubly fed induction
generators (DFIGs) are widely used in variable-speed wind
turbines. Despite the well-accepted performance of DFIGs, these
generators are highly sensible to grid faults. Hence, the presence
of grid faults must be considered in the design of any control
system to be deployed on DFIGs. Sliding mode control (SMC)
is a useful alternative for electric machinery control since SMC
offers fast dynamic response and less sensitivity to parameter
variations and disturbances. Additionally, the natural outputs of
SMC are discontinuous signals allowing direct switching of
power electronic devices. In this paper, a grid-voltage-oriented
SMC is proposed and tested under low voltage grid faults.
ADVANTAGES:
The controller has the main advantages of simple structure,
no dependence on system parameters and switching of
power electronic devices directly from the controller output
signals.
The controller is able to track torque and stator reactive
power even under voltage distortion of the grid without
sequence de-composition of rotor current nor further
modification of the original controller.
