Abstract: The vector control of the Brushless Doubly Fed Induction Generator (BDFIG) was implemented in Matlab/Simulink/SymPowerSystems using a rotating reference frame fixed on the power winding flux. The control algorithms of the grid-side and controlside converters can regulate the active and reactive power independently. The measure of the power winding flux angle, realized using a PLL, showed good performance during the system startup and has demonstrated a robust behavior under noisy voltage and current signals. A synchronization strategy is proposed that acts on the control-side converter current control loops to ensure the conditions for a smooth connection. Soft and fast synchronization is achieved at the minimum rotating speed. To validate the simulated results an experimental setup with a Doubly Fed Induction Generator with brushes was tested with the same control strategy and the experimental results showed coherent with the simulated ones. | ||||
