Abstract

The paper realizes the investigation of control operation and performance in grid integrated Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) system. Battery Energy Storage (BES), coupled at the DC link of DFIG is controlled by bidirectional power converter to compensate for utility/load demand. Rotor side converter (RSC) uses tip-speed ratio maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm to harness maximum power from the wind turbine. An adjustable step size least mean square (LMS) based adaptive control is implemented for the grid side converter (GSC) of DFIG system that besides managing power balance at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) also addresses power quality issues encountered in the system due to the presence of non-linear, unbalanced loads. The step size changes with the mean square error enabling the adaptive filter to detect system changes while producing a small steady state error. Performance of the system is exhibited and validated through simulated results in a developed Simulink model for steady state and dynamic conditions. The Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in grid currents and voltage is within IEEE 519 standard guidelines.
