Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) Based Wind Farm Control Framework for Primary Frequency and Inertial Response Application
This paper presents a new wind farm control framework for inertial and primary frequency response for a high wind integrated power system. The proposed architecture is unique in the sense that the methodology can be used for frequency regulation support during subsynchronous and super synchronous operation of the wind turbines (farm) The architecture work with existing wind farm controllers thus avoiding any additional replacement or tuning. The methodology depends on reduced order modeling based on model order reduction (MOR) and subsequent online controller design. The approach is tested on a smaller wind farm and further evaluated on a larger reduced power grid with 39 buses and ten generators. The results show that the proposed architecture provides greater flexibility in wind farm control towards frequency oscillations.
