The grid-connected doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) driven wind turbine (WT) system encounters voltage fluctuations due to severe grid faults. The rise in DC-link voltage imbalances the system under voltage sag condition. The system’s protection should ensure that the WT generator meets the grid requirements through a low voltage ride through (LVRT) technique. This paper proposed the modified 2nd order sliding mode (MSOSM) control with gain added super twisting algorithm (GAST) for LVRT enhancement under voltage sag. This controller adds the low positive gains to the switching functions of the super twisting (ST) algorithm. As a result, it maintains the proper variation margins and constant DC-link voltage of the WT-DFIG system under grid fault. The MSOSM controller suppresses the chattering effect, achieves better zero convergence, and eliminates the coordinate transformations. Moreover, the performance of the proposed controller is compared with existing controllers in the literature with the help of MATLAB/SIMULINK. The hardware-in-loop (HIL) validates these simulation results performed on the OPAL-RT setup. Based on the studies, it is found that the proposed controller enhances the performance of the WT-DFIG system under transient conditions.
