Abstract

The paper deals with control techniques for minimizing the operating loss of doubly fed induction generator based wind generation systems when providing reactive power. The proposed method achieves its goal through controlling the
rotor side q-axis current in the synchronous reference frame. The formula for the control reference is explicitly deduced in this paper considering the losses of the generator, the power electronic devices and the filter. Three control strategies are compared with the proposed method under different wind speeds and different
reactive power references. The simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
