1. INTRODUCTION Modern wind turbine generator utilizes power electronics devices and drives for real and reactive power controls in wind power plants to have much better steady state and dynamic performance compared to wind power plants of the past. For reliability and cost effective reasons, it is very important to proper represent steady state and dynamic characteristics in large scale response of positive sequence simulations. In this research, the two basic WTG(wind turbine generator) configurations that are investigated currently in use :(1)Self-excited induction generator,(2)Doubly fed asynchronous generator, also known as Doubly fed induction generator. Wind energy is very promising and effective energy for present and future situations. One of the most significant problems to take up the arrangement for installation of wind turbines in modern wind power plants. It is well known that the power delivered by wind turbines directly coupled to grid is not constant as a result of wind variability. In absence of storage systems, a fluctuating power supply produced can lead to voltage variations in the grid and resulting of frequency flickering. Another disturbance of most induction machines utilized in the wind turbines is that the required reactive power varies with wind speed and time. These problems can make the use of double fed induction generators attractive for wind turbine applications. In this research works, a self-excited induction generator and a doubly fed induction generator are excited and simulated with same set of series-parallel capacitance banks and choosing other related parameters and finally a comparative performance study is made based on simulated experimental results in PSCAD/EMTDC software.[ 1,2,8,10]

2. SELF-EXCITED INDUCTION GENERATOR An induction motor works as a generator when sufficient amount of capacitance is connected across the machine terminals to sustain the excitation requirement while the rotor speed is maintained by some mechanical means. Self-excited induction generators are good member for generating wind electric power especially in remote areas as they do not need external power supply to produce the magnetic field. Permanent magnet generators may also be used for wind energy applications but they suffer from uncontrollable magnetic field, which decays over a period due to weakening of the magnets, and the generated voltage tends to fall steeply with load. The SEIG has a self-protection mechanism because the voltage collapses when there is a short circuit at its terminals. Further, the SEIGs have more advantages such as cost, reduced maintenance, rugged and simple construction, brush-less rotor

3. DOUBLY FED INDUCTION GENERATOR DFIG means Double Fed Induction Generator is widely used in wind power sector. It is basically an induction generator with a multiphase wound rotor and a multiphase slip ring assembly with brushes for access to the rotor windings.

Fig.2. Power balance of the doubly-fed induction generator

The principle of the DFIG is that rotor windings are connected to the grid via slip rings and back to-back voltage source converter that controls both the rotor and the grid currents. Therefore rotor frequency can freely differ from the grid frequency. By controlling the rotor currents by the converter it is possible to adjust the active and reactive power fed to the grid from the stator independently of the generators turning speed. The control principle used is either the two-axis current vector control or direct torque control (DTC). DTC has turned out to have better stability than current vector control especially when high reactive currents are required from the Generator. The doubly-fed generator rotors are typically wound with from 2 to 3 times the number of turns of the stator. This means that the rotor voltages will be higher and currents respectively lower. Thus in the typical ± 30 % operational speed range around the synchronous speed the rated current of the converter is accordingly lower leading to a low cost of the converter. [5] Advantages of using induction generator over synchronous generator are: Firstly, as the rotor circuit is controlled by a power electronics converter, the induction generator is able to both import and export reactive power. This has important consequences for power system stability and allows the machine to support the grid during severe voltage disturbances. Secondly, the control of the rotor voltages and currents enables the induction machine to remain synchronized with the grid while the wind turbine speed varies. A variable speed wind turbine utilises the available wind resource more efficiently than a fixed speed wind turbine, especially during light wind conditions. Thirdly, the cost of the converter is low when compared with other variable speed solutions because only fraction of the

mechanical power, typically 25-30 %, is fed to the grid through the converter, the rest being fed to grid directly from the stator. The efficiency of the DFIG is very good for the same reason.[6,14]

4. SIX PULSE BRIDGE CONVERTER/INVERTER The output of the rotor power is feed to the grid through back to six pulse converters via common DC link. Machine side converter act as a six pulse rectifier and grid side converter acts as six pulse inverter during the machine working in super synchronous mode. Six pulse converter works in rectifying mode is used to convert the variable magnitude, variable frequency voltage at the induction generator rotor terminals to DC voltage. For smooth output DC voltage, limiting reactor is connected in the DC link. DC link reactor acts as stiff voltage/current source and it provides dc isolation between the two converters.[7,11]

It is observed from the above results that the direct connection of 50% of generated power by self-excited induction generator to grid bus or load circuit and rest of the power is regulated by power converter, no controlling over the power generation by the AC/DC/AC power converter. There is negligible changes of power dispatch in grid on varying the firing angle delay of power converter and inverter. Moreover, large amount of DC-link voltage and current is to handle for power regulation, power dispatch etc and this model may not be appropriated for real purposes. The voltage regulation is also not to be affective due to the same reasons.

When whole of generated power is regulated through via AC/DC/AC power converter, there is an effective variation of power generation occurs on varying of firing angle of power converter and inverter. This project model may be utilized for regulation and controlling of power in modern power circuits.. The smooth power generation, operation and control may be adopted in power generation circuits, but in some cases the load or grid voltage become higher than predefined values which may be happened due to Ferranti, harmonics or other charging effects which offers voltage instability.

It is observed from the results that when 50% of generated power by wind power plant connected with D.F.I.G., the power production is better than other two project models. The generation of power, regulation, controlling, handling operation of generated power is easier. The overall control system is governed by the feedback in nature as 50% of generated power is fed back through the stator circuit to rotor circuit for regulation and controlling of grid power at desired level without hampering the voltage stability. It is revealed from the results that the requirement of concerned associate power electronics equipments is moderate in nature.

7. A COMPARATIVE PERFORMANCE STUDY

Project Model-1 1. It is not possible to control over the real power and reactive dispatch by the power converter system as negligible changes with variation of firing angle. 2. Severe voltage instability and flicking of frequency occurs in the grid or load circuit. 3. Higher capability of power electronic circuit is required. 4. Largest HVDC link voltage and current is to handle lower reactive power generation with same set of capacitive excitation. 5. So due to above reasons, it may not be applicable in real cases. Project Model-2

1. Lower size of power electronic devices is required to handle comparatively higher DC-link voltage and current. 2. Lower power production with same set of operating sets.

3. Higher values of capacitor banks is required for production of reactive power. 4. The overall system performance is comparatively good. Project Model-3 1. Comparatively production of large amount of electrical power with same operating set. 2. Less sizes of capacitance bank is required as 50% of generated power is fed back to the rotor circuit for excitation of D.F.I.G. 3. Moderate sizes of power electronic devices are required to handle comparatively lower voltage and current. 4. Maintaining good voltage stability with fixed frequency grid voltages. 5. Overall system performance is better than other project models.

8. CONCLUSION In this thesis , three dynamic models of wind power plants has been presented for a pitch-controlled and variable speed wind Turbine, equipped with self-excited Induction generator as well as a wound-rotor doubly fed induction Generator and static AC/DC/AC power converters with power transformer cascade. The necessary series-parallel capacitor banks have been included in the power circuits for maintaining voltage stability for reactive power balance. Three models have been framed with self-excited induction generator as well as D.F.I.G. and implemented using PSCAD/EMTDC software. The simulations performed and analysis of concerned results indicates that the system presents various dynamic characteristics in those three project models, with/without any stability problems. PSCAD/EMTDC proved to be a valuable tool in predicting the behaviour of the WT, in selecting controller parameters and optimizing in general the control and operation of the machine and a case study has been analyzed and all those models analysis is helpful to select the project model in real situation.
