  Effect of Switching Faults in DFIG Based WECS

  By Arathy Raveendran, Chama R. Chandran

  Abstract: Wind energy is one of the renewable energy source used for the power generation. Nowadays doubly fed induction generators (DFIG) are commonly used, because of variable speed operation, power control and smaller converter capacity. DFIG based Wind energy conversion system (WECS) consists of Rotor side converter (RSC) and Grid side converter (GSC). These converters are made up of power electronics switches, so the chance of fault is more and this …
