Abstract

This paper shows the modeling and the effectiveness of wind turbine for voltage improvement of power systems. The wind turbine is based on a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG). A field-oriented control is used to control of the power flow exchanged between the DFIG and the power system. A simplified wind turbine model based on independent control of active and reactive powers is used in this paper. The proposed methodology is tested in the single machine power system connected to a wind farms in the case of sudden voltage variations.
