【 摘 要 】
There are significant concerns regarding the stability of increased wind power generation in weak power grids. This paper investigates and improves the stability of Wind Turbine Squirrel Cage Induction Generators (WT-SCIGs) with series compensation and weak interconnections to the power grid. Detailed time-domain and state-space modeling have revealed new bifurcations and oscillatory modes for a WT-SCIG connected radially to a weak grid through a series compensated line. The stability domain analyses are carried out by computing bifurcations in the system by analyzing eigenvalues of the linearized system. The analyses demonstrate for the first time how the degree of compensation at which the Hopf bifurcation occurs depends on the
