Abstract

This paper deals with the analysis and simulation of the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) for Grid connected DFIG wind farm system mitigation. The purpose of the paper is to derive and analyze a reactive power control strategy of UPFC dedicated for DFIG mitigation. The FACT device Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is connected with load bus. Paper has demonstrated the improvement in voltages, power transferred to grid, active and reactive power control. Matlab/simulink is used for the work. Paper demonstrated the simulation results for with and without UPFC for Grid connected Doubly Fed Induction Generator wind farm system.
