Abstract

This paper details a nonlinear Sliding Mode Control (SMC) based Sub-Synchronous Resonance (SSR) mitigation method for Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based wind turbines interconnected to series compensated transmission systems. The proposed method is used to control the rotor side converter to mitigate SSR while ensuring decoupled torque and reactive power control ability of the DFIG is maintained. The proposed method is implemented on the detailed DFIG wind turbine model provided in the RTDS platform for validation via simulations. Results obtained indicate the controller is successful at damping SSR when tested under varying compensation levels and wind speeds.
