Mitigation of Sub-Synchronous Control Interaction in DFIGs using a Power Oscillation Damper

• The aim of this research work is to analyse subsynchronous control interaction (SSCI) in doubly-fed induction generators (DFIGs) and to design a supplementary control technique for the mitigation of SSCI. A mathematical model of the DFIG is derived and linearized in order to perform an eigenvalue analysis. This analysis pinpoints the parameters of the system which are sensitive in making sub-synchronous modes unstable and hence are responsible for causing SSCI. A power oscillation damper (POD) is designed using a residue method to make the DFIG system immune to the SSCI. The POD control signal acts as a supplementary control, which is fed to the controller of the grid-side converter (GSC). The POD signal is applied to different summation junctions of the GSC controller in order to determine the best placement of the POD for effective mitigation of SSCI and for the increased damping of the system.
