Abstract :
This paper gives an overview of the frequency spectrum of the stator and rotor currents in a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used in wind power applications. The paper also presents a method to eliminate higher harmonics and interharmonics in the DFIG stator current. The method is implemented on a 40 kW laboratory model connected to the utility-grid, where the DFIG is supplied by a back-to-back 3-level NPC-converter.
