Transient stability analysis of IEEE 9-bus system integrated with DFIG and SCIG based wind turbines

Abstract

Electricity is in high demand with a fast-growing population; hence it is advisable to turn towards green energy. In this research, Wind Turbine (WT) is modelled with two different types of induction generators (IGs), which are the Doubly-Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) and Squirrel-Cage Induction Generator (SCIG) and implemented to IEEE 9-Bus system to assess the transient stability. MATLAB/ Simulink R2019a platform was considered to carry the whole examination. DC1A excitation system was applied to Synchronous Generators (SGs) as well as Power System Stabilizer (PSS). The transmission line7-5 was found to suffer from a high peak value of a relative power angle of approximately 130 degrees. As for the settling time, without PSS it was 20.69 s and with PSS it became 6.23 s. A wind farm with a rated capacity of 60 MW was used in the system. WT integrated with DFIG has the lowest peak value of 127 degrees at Bus locations 4 and 5 and for SCIG, Bus 5 with a peak value of 136 degrees. Thus, it can be propelled as the perfect location. Moreover, this is due to the three-phase fault was located at the transmission line7-5 which is far away from Buses 4 and 5. In the end, the WT integrated with DFIG provides a lower peak value of relative power angle compared to SCIG, whereas for settling time, it is the opposite.

Control of self-excited induction generator based wind turbine using current and voltage control approaches

“…All these components are connected to the grid through the transmission line. Among these devices, the generator is considered a vital piece of equipment that plays an important role in system stability [5]. Over the years, generator types such as synchronous and asynchronous generators have been adopted with the wind turbine (WT).…”
