    The vital problems of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbine are power fluctuation and low-voltage ride-through performance. To tackle both problems, the new circuit configuration and optimization technique of the superconducting magnetic energy storage with fault current limiting function (SMES-FCL) in a DC microgrid are presented. The SMES-FCL circuit mainly consists of two DC choppers with common superconducting coil (SC). During normal operation, the SMES-FCL acts as the SMES unit to suppress the power fluctuation of DFIG. When severe faults occur in the system, the SC is automatically connected to the system and used as the fault current limiter. Consequently, the fault current and the terminal voltage drop of DFIG can be alleviated. The energy function method is used to formulate the optimization problem of SC inductance, initial stored energy, and proportional-integral control parameters of choppers. Simulation study confirms the superior control effect of the SMES-FCL over the conventional SMES.

    Cooperative Control of SFCL and SMES for Enhancing Fault Ride Through Capability and Smoothing Power Fluctuation of DFIG Wind Farm

    This paper deals with a cooperative control of a resistive type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) and a superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) for enhancing fault ride through (FRT) capability and smoothing power fluctuation of the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind farm. When the system faults occur, the SFCL is used to limit the fault current, alleviate the terminal voltage drop, and transient power fluctuation so that the DFIG can ride through the fault. Subsequently, the remaining power fluctuation is suppressed by the SMES. The resistive value of the SFCL as well as the superconducting coil inductance of the SMES are simultaneously optimized so that a sudden increase in the kinetic energy in the DFIG rotor during faults, an initial stored energy in the SMES coil, an energy loss of the SFCL, and an output power fluctuation of the DFIG are minimum. The superior control effect of the cooperative SFCL and SMES over the individual device is confirmed by simulation study.
