description | Large-scale wind farms connect to the grid and deliver electrical energy to the load center. When a short-circuit fault occurs on the transmission line, there will be an excess of electric power, but the power demand will increase instantaneously once the fault is removed. The conventional additional frequency control strategies of wind farms can effectively reduce the frequency fluctuation caused by load mutation, but still there are some limitations for the frequency fluctuation caused by the whole process of occurrence, development and removal of a short-circuit fault on the transmission line. Therefore, this paper presents an improved additional frequency control strategy for wind farms. According to the variation law of system frequency during the whole process of a short-circuit fault, the proposed strategy revises the parameters in conventional additional frequency control of the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) to have effective damping characteristics throughout the entire process from failure to removal, thereby the output power of DFIGs could respond to frequency fluctuation rapidly. MATLAB/ Simulink is used to build a four-machine two-area model for simulation analysis. The results show that the control strategy can effectively reduce the frequency fluctuation of DFIGs, and enhance the stability of the system. |
