Modelbased Validation of Gridconnected DFIGbased Wind Turbine for Harmonic and Interharmonic Analysis

Nowadays, the electricity generation study through wind resources is of great importance, because it is presented as a solution to reduce environmental pollution by replacing electrical systems based on conventional generation with clean energy. However, the increasing problems associated with power quality must be considered, mainly harmonic distortion, derived from the interconnection of wind turbines with the electrical grid, and even more because of their included power electronics converters. Therefore, in this article a DFIGbased wind turbine model connected to the electrical grid for harmonic and interharmonic analysis is developed. The proposed model is validated with a lowpower experimental prototype (175 W and 3 kW). Both, simulation and experimental results agree with the analytical result
