Power generation system, system for suppressing sub-synchronous oscillation and method for controlling operation of power system

Abstract:

The present invention discloses a power generation system including a double-fed induction generator, a power converter, and a controller. The double-fed induction generator includes a rotor and a stator coupled to a grid. The power converter includes a rotor side converter coupled to the rotor of the generator, a grid side converter coupled to the grid, and a DC bus coupled between the rotor side converter and the grid side converter. The controller includes a rotor side controller for controlling the rotor side converter and a grid side controller for controlling the grid side converter. The rotor side controller includes a compensator having a transfer function and configured to counter a negative resistance effect of the generator to suppress sub-synchronous oscillations. The present invention further discloses a system for suppressing sub-synchronous oscillations and a method for controlling operation of a power system.
