Low Voltage Ride-through in DFIG Wind Generators by Controlling the Rotor Current without Crowbars

Among all the different types of electric wind generators, those that are based on doubly fed induction generators, or DFIG technology, are the most vulnerable to grid faults such as voltage sags. This paper proposes a new control strategy for this type of wind generator, that allows these devices t...
