Minimising UMP in DFIGs

Minimising UMP in DFIGs

The doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) has become increasingly popular for variable speed wind turbines because of the lower power electronics converter rating required. However, the small air gap of a DFIG causes it to be vulnerable to slight misalignment of the rotor which may cause a large unb...
