Unified P-Q based STATCOM control for wind driven induction generator

الملخص EN

This paper principally advises a simple and reliable control for Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) in a stand-alone wind driven self-excited induction generator power system.

The control was proposed based on instantaneous P-Q theory.

The advised control enjoys the merits of robustness, reliability and simplicity.

The paper also proposes a dimensioning procedure for the STATCOM that involves advising an annotative analytical expression for sizing the DC-link capacitor.

This procedure has the advantages of applicability for different reactive power compensators that depend on a separate DC-link in its operation.

Comprehensive simulation results in Matlab environment were illustrated for corroborating the performance of the advised control under rigorous operating scenarios.

The results show the feasibility, reliability and practicability of the proposed controller.
