| description | The doubly fed induction machine (DFIM)-based DC voltage generator is equipped with a stator-connected diode rectifier. The six-pulse diode rectifier as a nonlinear circuit introduces harmonics in the stator and rotor current and distorts the machine stator voltage, as well as the stator flux. This causes electromagnetic torque oscillations and instantaneous power components oscillations. The torque oscillations adversely impact the mechanical parts of the drive-train and oscillations of the <i>p</i> component of instantaneous power influence DC-bus voltage oscillations. The oscillations can be somewhat cancelled by control methods. However, cancellation of electromagnetic torque is not strictly coupled with cancellation of oscillations of the <i>p</i> component of instantaneous power. The paper presents an analysis of influence of the control methods aimed at a reduction of torque oscillations on the output voltage oscillations level in the stand-alone DFIM-based DC voltage generator. Field-oriented control FOC with current controllers and space vector modulation-based direct torque control DTC-SVM with flux module regulation have been compared with control in which electromagnetic torque is one of the commanded variables, whereas the second variable is the dot product of stator flux and rotor current space vectors. The contributions of this paper are the introduction of a new variable in the second control path in the DTC-SVM method instead of flux vector length and the proof that it can reduce torque and DC-bus voltage oscillations in the DFIG-DC system. Additionally, this paper reveals that for proper stator-to-rotor-turns ratio of a doubly fed machine necessary for reduction of the rotor converter power, lower DC-bus voltage can be obtained than is required for full realization rotor side voltage requested by rotor current controllers. This is the reason why, regardless of the control method, torque oscillations cannot be always fully cancelled, and a comparative study of the methods at these conditions has been conducted in simulation and in laboratory tests. |
