Abstract

This paper provides an overview of the fault ride-through capability of different topologies for Doubly-fed Induction Generator Based-Wind Turbines. According to the recent grid code requirement, large-scale wind farms need to stay connected during grid faults. Especially, the fault ride-through capability is of the most concern to the grid operator to ensure the system stability. Different configurations including conventional crowbar, series dynamic resistors, and series voltage compensation are investigated in the paper and compared in terms of system complexity. Finally, the simulation results are carried out to demonstrate the details of system responses during and after faults.
