Optimal tuning and placement of POD for SSCI mitigation in DFIG-based power system

• The phenomenon of sub-synchronous control interaction (SSCI) in doubly-fed induction generators (DFIGs) is investigated and the optimal tuning and placement of a power oscillation damper (POD) for its mitigation is proposed in this paper. The effect of the POD on the DFIG system is studied by placing it at all the summation junctions of rotor-side converter (RSC) and grid-side converter (GSC) controllers, turn by turn. Five local signals are examined as different input signals to the POD out of which three local signals gave promising results. These signals include the DFIG's active power, the magnitude of the DFIG's apparent power, and the magnitude of the current through the transmission line. Residues are calculated for each POD placement and for each input to the POD. The calculated residues are studied along with the root-locus plots to see the effect of the POD on the mitigation of SSCI and the stability of the DFIG-based system.
