Abstract
In this paper, we present the steady state analysis of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) adopted for
wind power generation. The three-phase induction machine connected to the network, to work as a generator
for wind farms, is excited on the rotor circuit by a slip-frequency current injected to the rotor, from an exciter
mounted on the same shaft of the machine. The resulting rotating magnetic field rotates at synchronous speed;
as such the generated power has a constant frequency independent of the shaft speed. Effects of the excita-
tion voltage magnitude and phase angle on the active and reactive power are studied, when the machine runs
at constant speed. It has been shown that by controlling the excitation voltage magnitude and phase angle
would control the mode of operation of the machine; motor mode or generator mode. Furthermore, the ef-
fects of the shaft speed on the active and reactive power at constant excitation voltage magnitude and con-
stant phase angle are also investigated.

1. Introduction
The growing demand of energy in industrialized world
and environmental problems determined some important
decision at political level that consider even more im-
portant to improve the percentage of energy produced by
renewable sources. It is well-known the Kyoto Protocol
and other important regulations that take care of envi-
ronmental problems. Also the European Parliament ap-
proved the document 2001/77/CE on the “promotion of
electrical energy produced by renewable sources” at-
tending that before 2020 the 22% of total consumed en-
ergy should be produced by renewable sources. In this
frame a lot of efforts are devoted to increase the effi-
ciency of the generation systems based on wind, sun,
hydro and biomass.
Wind power seems to be one of the most interesting
technologies, especially considering the developments in
the last decade. The electrical energy generation by wind
depends on different factors, in particular the wind speed
and the characteristics of the wind turbine generator [1].
The unpredictability of the wind power, that is variable
with time, determines fluctuating power outputs of wind
energy conversion systems. This variable power genera-
tion nature requires a careful analysis, design, and man-
agement of the generation system so that various ap-
proaches have been developed to study wind turbine
generato r be haviors.
There are different technical solutions that have been
set up for different cases, for wind turbines in a range
from less 1 kW to as large as 3 MW or more, to obtain
the maximum efficiency and reliability. Traditionally the
wind power generation has used fixed-speed induction
generators that represent a simple and robust solution,
then variable speed turbines have been considered be-
cause they give higher energy, allow an extended control
of both active and reactive power, and present less fluc-
tuation in output power. The main solution adopted to
realize wind generators can be divided, by electrical to-
pology point of view and depending on the power, in the
following categories [2]:
Standard squirrel cage induction generator directly
connected to the grid;
Wound-rotor induction generator with variable rotor
resistance;
Doubly fed inductio n generator;
Synchronous or induction generator with full-size
power converter.

Both induction and synchronous generators can be
used for wind turbine systems. Induction generators can
be used in a fixed-speed system or a variable-speed sys-
tem, while synchronous generators are normally used in
power electronic interfac ed variable-speed systems. Mainly,
three types of induction generators are used in wind
power conversion systems: cage rotor, wound rotor with
slip control by changing rotor resistance, and DFIG. The
cage rotor induction machine can be directly connected
into an ac system and operates at a fixed speed or uses a
full-rated power electronic system to operate at variable
speed. The wound rotor generator with rotorresistance-
slip control is normally directly connected to an ac sys-
tem, but the slip control provides the ability of changing
the operation speed in a certain range. The DFIG pro-
vides a wide range of speed variation depending on the
size of power electronic converter systems. In this chap-
ter we first discuss the systems without power electronics
except the thyristor soft starter, and then discuss the
variable-speed wind turbine systems, including those
with partially rated power electronics and the full-scale
power electronic interfaced wind turbine systems.
In fixed-speed wind turbines, the generator is directly
connected to the mains source grid. The frequency of the
grid determines the rotational speed of the generator and
thus of the rotor. The generator speed depends on the
number of pole pairs and the frequency of the grid. The
scheme consists of a squirrel-cage induction generator
(SCIG), connected via a transformer to the grid. The
wind turbine systems using cage rotor induction genera-
tors almost operate at a fixed speed (variation of 1% -
2%). The power can be limited aerodynamically by stall
control, active stall control, or by pitch control. The ad-
vantage of wind turbin es with induction generators is the
simple and cheap construction. In addition, no synchro-
nization device is required. These systems are attractive
due to cost and reliability, but they are not fast enough
(within a few ms) to control the active power. There are
some other drawbacks also: the wind turbine has to oper-
ate at constant speed, it requires a stiff power grid to en-
able stable operation, and it may require a more expen-
sive mechanical construction in order to absorb high
mechanical stress since wind gusts may cause torque
pulsations in the drive train and the gearbox. Other dis-
advantages with the induction generators are high start-
ing currents and their demand for reactive power. They
need a reactive power compensator to reduce (almost
eliminate) the reactive power demand from the turbine
generators to the grid. It is usually done by continuously
switching capacitor banks following the production
variation (5 - 25 steps) [2].
In variable-speed systems the generator is normally
connected to the grid by a power electronic system. For
synchronous generators and for induction generators
without rotor windings, a full-rated power electronic
system is connected between the stator of the generator
and the grid, where the total power production must be
fed through the power electronic system. For induction
generators with rotor windings, the stator of the genera-
tor is connected to the grid directly. On ly the rotor of the
generator is conn ected through a power electronic system.
This gives the advantage that only a part of the power
production is fed through the power electronic converter.
This means the nominal power of the converter system
can be less than the nominal power of the wind turbine.
In general the nominal power of the converter may be
30% of the power rating of the wind turbine, enabling a
rotor speed variation in the range of 30% of the nominal
speed. By controlling the active power of the converter,
it is possible to vary the rotational speed of the generator
and thus of the rotor of the wind turb ines [2].
Doubly-fed induction machines can be operated as a
generator as well as a motor in both sub-synchronous and
super synchronous speeds, thus giving four possible op-
erating modes. Only the two generating modes at sub-
synchronous and super-synchronous speeds are of inter-
est for wind power generation.
In a DIFG the slip rings are making the electrical con-
nection to the rotor. If the generator is running su-
per-synchronously, electrical power is delivered to the
grid through both the rotor an d th e stator. If the generator
is running sub-synchronously, electrical power is deliv-
ered into the rotor from the grid. A speed variation of
±30% around synchronous speed can be obtained by the
use of a p ower converter of 30 % of nominal power. Fur-
thermore, it is possible to control both active (Pref) and
reactive power (Qref), which gives a better grid perform-
ance, and the power electronics enables the wind turb ine
to act as a more dynamic power source to the grid. The
DFIG system does not need either a soft starter or a reac-
tive power compensator. The system is naturally a little
bit more expensive compared to the classical systems
However, it is possible to save money on the safety mar-
gin of gear and reactiv e power compensation units, and it
is also possible to capture more energy from the wind.
[2]
In Reference [1] the case of variable speed dual- exc ited
synchronous machine is inv estigated. For its control pos-
sibilities, this machine is particularly suitable for vari-
able-speed constant frequency applications like wind
power generation systems. The mathematical model of
the wind turbine and the generator is presented a control
technique for output power maximization is proposed. It
has been demonstrated that using the proposed control
algorithm it is possible to achiev e a significant increment
on the power generated in comparison with that obtained

using an unregulated induction machine. the stability of WT system. Applying a set of optimized
controller parameters, the stability can be further en-
hanced [7].
Reference [3] presents a dynamic model of an impor-
tant contemporary wind turbine concept namely a doubly
fed (wound rotor) induction generator with a voltage
source converter feeding the rotor. This wind turbine
concept is equipped with rotor speed, pitch angle and
terminal voltage controllers. It was shown that it is pos-
sible to develop a set of equations describing the behav-
ior of the wind turbine. Furthermore, controllers for the
rotor speed, the pitch ang le and th e terminal vo ltag e were
developed. The behavior of the system was investigated
using two measured wind sequences.
This paper presents the steady state analysis of DFIG,
where w e assume that the three phase induction machine
is connected to work as a generator for wind turbine
farms, the machine is excited in the rotor circuit by a slip
frequency current comes from an exciter moun ted on the
same shaft, with the main generator, so that the speed of
the resulting flux in the air gap is always synchronous
speed independent of the wind speed. Effects of the ex-
citation voltage as well as th e excitation vo ltage angle on
the total active and reactive power, when the machine
runs at constant speed are studied in this paper. Further-
more, effects of the shaft speed on the active and reactive
power at constant excitation voltage and phase angle are
also studied.
Reference [4] presents the modal analysis of a grid c on-
nected to a DFIG. The change in modal properties for
different system parameters, operating points, and grid str-
engths are computed and observed. The results offer a better
understanding of the DFIG intrinsic dynamics, which can
also be useful for control design and model justification. 2. Steady State Analysis of DFIG
Vector control is already applied to the DFIG control,
which makes the DFIG gain good performance in the
wind energy capturing operation. But in the two tradi-
tional vector control schemes, the stator magnetizing cur-
rent is considered invariant in order to simplify the rotor
current inner-loop controller. The two schemes are capa-
ble of performing very well when the grid is in normal
condition [5]. However, when the grid disturbance, such
as grid voltage dip or swell fault, occurs, the control per-
formance will be getting wo rse, the rotor over current will
occur, which seriously reduce the ride-through ability of
the DFIG wind energy generation system. Based on the
accurate model of the DFIG, the deficiency of the tradi-
tional vector control is deeply investigated. The improved
control schemes of the two typical traditional vector con-
trol schemes used in DFIG is proposed, and the simula-
tion study of the proposed and traditional control schemes
is carried out. The validity of the proposed modified
schemes to control the rotor current and to improve the
ride-through ability of the DFIG wind energy generation
system is proved in Reference [6] by the comparison study.
In the steady state analysis we assume a three-phase
slip-ring induction machine, where the rotor is excited
from a slip frequency exciter mounted on the same shaft
of the rotating machine, and the stator is connected to the
power grid having a constant voltage and constant fre-
quency. The excitation voltage is expressed in a phasor
form as f

The growing integration of wind energy into power
networks will have a significant impact on power syste m
stability. With the development of Wind Turbine (WT)
techniques, the DFI becomes the dominant WT type used
in wind farms [6]. In this situation, DFIG should be
modeled properly in power system stability analysis. A
detailed model of the WT with DFIG and its associated
controllers is presented, based on which the small signal
stability model is derived. Small signal stability analysis
shows that the DFIG control can significantly improve

Examining these curves reveals the following:
At sub-synchronous the machine absorbs reactive
power from the network, while at super-synchronous
speed the machine delivers reactive power to the net-
work.
The maximum absorbed or delivered reactive power
to the network occurs at the same speed.
At the same speed, the reactive power increases as the
excitation voltage increases.

At sub-synchronous speed the machine absorbs reac-

tion voltage magnitudes, and the maximum of these
reactive powers occurs at the same speed.
3.2. Effects of the Excitation Voltage Angle
In this section the characteristics of the machine is stud-

little bit positive excitation voltage angle.

Effects of the excitation voltage magnitude and angle on

shown that controlling the excitation voltage magnitude

angle are also investigated. It can be concluded that the
power angle stability of conventional synchronous ma-
chine has no meaning in this type of generators. Studying
the control of the machine terminal voltage is under
study and the results will appear in a forthcoming paper.
