Hybrid control approach for low-voltage ride-through capability in doubly-fed induction generator-based wind turbines

Grid-connected doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind turbines are very sensitive to voltage dip problems that occur in grid side. Therefore, different low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability methods are used to decrease the voltage dip problems. In this study, it is aimed to present a hybrid control approach to provide LVRT capability in DFIG. Moreover, it is aimed to develop electromotive-force (emf) models in a stator-rotor circuit. The rotor emf model is used to compensate for the voltage dip and reduce the oscillations while using the stator emf model to ensure the ease of calculation and accuracy of the simulation study. In the results, this paper is reporting that the hybrid control approach proposed in this study has given yield effective and better results in comparison with those of the conventional DFIG model.
