Internal mode control based coordinated controller for brushless doubly fed induction generator in wind turbines during fault conditions

Brushless double fed induction generator (BDFIG) based machines have gained popularity in wind turbine applications because of their easily accessible design. Low voltage ride through (LVRT) is critical for the reliable integration of renewable energy with the power grid. Therefore, LVRT capability...

description Brushless double fed induction generator (BDFIG) based machines have gained popularity in wind turbine applications because of their easily accessible design. Low voltage ride through (LVRT) is critical for the reliable integration of renewable energy with the power grid. Therefore, LVRT capability of brushless DFIGs makes them an attractive choice for maintaining voltage stability in grid. The existing works on BDFIG control suffer from two major drawbacks.
