Abstract :

It is been observed that an incessant and incredible enhancement of power generation from renewable energy sources is more than from conventional energy sources. The reason for rapid growth of renewable energy sources in the production of electricity arises because they are clean sources of energy, able to be replenished quickly, sustainable and eco–friendly. Since wind is stochastic, variable speed variable pitch–controlled doubly fed induction drives are mostly preferred in wind electric generator. In order to realize the operating characteristics of DFIG, an intensive approach is carried out to simulate it with associated parameters since its performance does not depend upon on the applied stator voltage but also the rotor voltage injected. The magnitude and phase angle of the rotor voltage keeps changing according to the variations of real and reactive power obtained at the rotor side converters. A ief study on analysis, modeling and simulation of DFIG are done using Simulink with the appropriate protection circuits so as to extract optimum power and accurately determine the performance.
