Abstract

The focus of energy production in the last decade has been oriented towards the generation of green energies, such as wind energy. As a result, there has been a big development in a variety of arrays that implement different types of generators and control systems, in which it is important to consider the climate variations that can, and will, affect the electrical power delivered by the generators. Because of said intermittence, the more practical solution is the utilization of generation systems that allow the variation of wind speed and avoid the problems that come with it; that is, the implementation of electrical machines that work under these changing wind speed conditions without causing any synchronism issues with the electrical grid. Where the usage of wound induction generators allows for a wide control of its generation variables. In this article, the controller for a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is modeled, which enables the control of the electromechanical generation variables efficiently. Given the importance of the DFIG parameters, having an appropriate control of the active and reactive power achieves a reliable and efficient system. Simulation results on Simulink are included as to verify the correct operation of the modeled controller under the mentioned wind speed conditions.
