ABSTRACT
In recent years, renewable energy has become one of the most important and promising sources of energy
generation, which demands additional transmission capacity and better means of maintaining system reliability.
The evolution of technology related to wind systems industry leaded to the development of a generation of
variable speed wind turbines that present many advantages compared to the fixed speed wind turbines. Doubly
fed induction generators (DFIG) are widely used in wind energy generation systems.
Keywords : doubly fed induction generator, rotor side converter, grid side converter, wind energy

wide concern about the environment has led to
increasing interest in technologies for generation of
renewable electrical energy. One way of generating
electricity from renewable sources is to use wind
turbines. Wind energy has been the subject of much
recent research and development .With increased
penetration of wind power into electrical grids, DFIG
wind turbines are largely deployed due to their variable
speed feature and hence influencing system dynamics.
This has created an interest in developing suitable
models for DFIG to be integrated into power system
studies. The continuous trend of having high
penetration of wind power, in recent years, has made it
necessary to introduce new practices. For example, grid
codes are being revised to ensure that wind turbines
would contribute to the control of voltage and
frequency and also to stay connected to the host
network following a disturbance. renewable energy
sources not contributing to the enhanced greenhouse
effect, especially wind power, are becoming an
important component of the total generation. Hence,
research concerning the dynamic behaviour of wind
energy systems is important to achieve a better
knowledge. In response to the new grid code
requirements, several DFIG models have been
suggested rotor voltage in an appropriate reference
frame to provide fast regulation of voltage
II. DOUBLY FED INDUCTION GENERATOR
Wound rotor induction generators (WRIGs) are
provided with three phase windings on the rotor and on
the stator. They may be supplied with energy at both
rotor and stator terminals. Hence they are called
doubly-fed induction generators (DFIGs) or double
output induction generators (DOIGs) in the generator
mode. Both motoring and generating operation modes
are feasible, provided the power electronic converters
that supply the rotor circuit via slip-rings and brushes
are capable of handling power in both directions.
A. OPERATING PRINCIPLE OF DFIG
The mainstream high-power wind-energy conversion
systems (WECSs) are based on doubly-fed induction
generators (DFIGs). The stator windings of DFIGs are
directly connected to the grids, and rotor windings are
connected to the grids through back-to-back power
electronic converters. The back-to-back converter
consists of two converters, i.e., rotor side converter
(RSC) and grid side converter (GSC) that are connected
“back-to back.” Between the two converters a dc-link
capacitor is placed, as energy storage, in order to keep
the voltage variations in the dc-link voltage small.
Control of the DFIG is more complicated than the
control of a standard induction machine. In order to
control the DFIG the rotor current is controlled by a
power electronic converter.
Wind turbines use a DFIG consisting of a WRIG and an
AC/DC/AC power electronic converter. The stator
