Paper Title
Control Of Svc In Wind Farms Based On Fixed-Speed Induction Generator Under Asymmetrical Faults
Abstract
This paper ensures the use of shunt
facts device static var compensator (SVC) to
improve the stability of wind farms based on fixed
speed induction generator (FSIG) fed to an power
system. Due to the occurrence of faults in the
system, there is a voltage dip at the point of
common coupling of wind farm and the power
system. During the unbalanced condition FSIG
absorbs large amount of reactive power from the
grid due to its behaviour of asynchronous
performance resulting into the instability of wind
farms. To achieve a better dynamic operation and
to obtain transient stability of the wind farm static
var compensator (SVC) is connected to meet the
wind farm integration. SVC can provide the
required reactive power compensation and
controls the voltage collapse in the system thus
increasing the stability of wind energy conversion
system.
