Modelling and Simulation of Energy Storage System for Grid-Connected Wind-PV ...ijtsrd
In this paper, a grid connected hybrid power system comprising wind and solar based renewable energy sources RERs is proposed. As these RERs are intermittent and random in nature, so a backup source is needed for smoothening the fluctuations in RERs output power. Battery energy storage BESS is proposed for this purpose. The electrical grid of the example represents a typical Utility distribution system. It consists of a 120-kV transmission system equivalent supplying a 25-kV distribution substation. Several feeders are connected to the 25-kV bus of the substation. One of them supplies the power to a community that owns the PV farm and an energy storage system. The grounding transformer connected at the 25-kV bus provides a neutral point and limits the overvoltage on the healthy phases during a single-phase fault. Its zero-sequence impedance is three times the value of the grid positive sequence impedance.

This document discusses two improved protection schemes for doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbines during grid faults. It begins with background on how grid faults negatively impact DFIG wind turbines by causing stator and rotor overcurrents, DC-link overvoltage, torque oscillations, and active/reactive power fluctuations. It then presents two proposed protection schemes - a series resistor scheme that limits rotor overcurrent by inserting a resistor during faults, and a crowbar and DC-chopper scheme that uses crowbar resistors and a DC chopper to limit overcurrent and overvoltage. The document compares simulations of these schemes under symmetrical and asymmetrical grid faults to evaluate their effectiveness in improving DFIG performance during faults.
Design and Control of Micro Grid Fed by Renewable Energy Generating Sourcesijtsrd
This work presents a control of a micro grid at an isolated location fed from wind and solar based hybrid energy sources. The machine used for wind energy conversion is doubly fed induction generator DFIG and a battery bank is connected to a common DC bus of them. A solar photovoltaic PV array is used to convert solar power, which is evacuated at the common DC bus of DFIG using a DC DC boost converter in a cost effective way. The voltage and frequency are controlled through an indirect vector control of the line side converter, which is incorporated with drop characteristics. It alters the frequency set point based on the energy level of the battery, which slows down over charging or discharging of the battery. The system is also able to work when wind power source is unavailable. Both wind and solar energy blocks have maximum power point tracking MPPT in their control algorithm.

Optimized servo-speed control of wind turbine coupled to doubly fed inductio...IJECEIAES
Optimal control of any variable speed wind turbine needs maximum power point tracking (MPPT) coupled to doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) for better power generation. This paper offers a novel direct power servo-speed control of wind turbine. This latter is based on DFIG optimal hysteresis MPPT inverter current control combined with space voltage modulation (SVM) inverter voltage technique, thus providing a stable and continuous energy flow to power grid. In this design, the asynchronous machine stator is directly connected to the grid. Bidirectional power converter, acting as frequency converter, is rotor circuit located. Rectifier supplies rotor windings with voltages and reference frequency resulting from control procedure of the power exchange between the stator and grid. Inverter is directly controlled by means of SVM technique to maintain direct current (DC) bus voltage constant. Simulation results show that the proposed configuration improves power converters efficiency due that rotor circuit needs less power than stator circuit which is injected into the grid.

Power Quality Enhancement Techniques in Hybrid AC DC Microgrid Analysis and I...ijtsrd
Distributed generators DGs that rely on renewable energy sources have become more important in the face of rising global temperatures. Substantial impetus will soon be supplied by wind, solar energy, biomass, mini hydro, and the use of fuel cells and microturbines. Distributed generation, where electricity is produced by a number of different renewable and unconventional energy sources, has emerged as a viable option for the construction of modern electrical systems because to its low environmental impact, scalability, and adaptability. A microgrid is a small scale electrical grid in which multiple loads and distributed generators are coordinated under a single set of controls. Microgrids are a kind of integrated energy delivery system that may either work in tandem with the main power grid or operate autonomously. The concept of a microgrid eliminates the need for several inverters in a single AC or DC grid and simplifies the connection of intermittent, renewable AC and DC power sources and loads. Equipment safety and security issues have been brought to light by the power electronic converters that link DGs to the utility grid. Greater local dependability, lower feeder losses, local voltage support, increased efficiency through waste heat use, voltage sag correction, and uninterruptible power supply are only some of the configuration options available to the client for the microgrid. In this study, we analyse the functionality of a hybrid AC DC microgrid while connected to the mains power supply. A solar array, a wind generator, and a battery are used to build a microgrid. The converters can now properly coordinate the AC and DC sub grids thanks to the added control techniques. Results were obtained by use of the MATLAB SIMULINK software environment.

This document summarizes research on integrating a wind turbine driven doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) into the power grid using a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) and crowbar protection to improve transient stability. A DFIG consists of a wound rotor induction generator connected to the grid via a partial-scale power converter. During faults, a crowbar is used to protect the converter by short-circuiting the rotor, while a STATCOM senses voltage sags and provides quick compensation. Simulation results in MATLAB/Simulink show that using STATCOM and DFIG control schemes can improve power quality and grid stability by regulating voltage and reactive power during disturbances.
This document presents a mathematical model of a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) for a wind turbine, developed using MATLAB/Simulink. It includes models of the wind turbine's aerodynamic and mechanical systems, as well as electrical models of the DFIG. The DFIG model is based on equations in a synchronous rotating reference frame. Simulation results demonstrating the response of the wind turbine and DFIG outputs to changing wind speed are presented and analyzed. The paper concludes the model can effectively represent the dynamic behavior of an actual DFIG wind turbine system.

Square transposition: an approach to the transposition process in block cipherjournalBEEI
The transposition process is needed in cryptography to create a diffusion effect on data encryption standard (DES) and advanced encryption standard (AES) algorithms as standard information security algorithms by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The problem with DES and AES algorithms is that their transposition index values form patterns and do not form random values. This condition will certainly make it easier for a cryptanalyst to look for a relationship between ciphertexts because some processes are predictable. This research designs a transposition algorithm called square transposition. Each process uses square 8 × 8 as a place to insert and retrieve 64-bits. The determination of the pairing of the input scheme and the retrieval scheme that have unequal flow is an important factor in producing a good transposition. The square transposition can generate random and non-pattern indices so that transposition can be done better than DES and AES.

The document proposes using a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize the hyperparameters of a convolutional neural network (CNN) for image classification. The PSO algorithm is used to find optimal values for CNN hyperparameters like the number and size of convolutional filters. In experiments on the MNIST handwritten digit dataset, the optimized CNN achieved a testing error rate of 0.87%, which is competitive with state-of-the-art models. The proposed approach finds optimized CNN architectures automatically without requiring manual design or encoding strategies during training.

In this contemporary era, the uses of machine learning techniques are increasing rapidly in the field of medical science for detecting various diseases such as liver disease (LD). Around the globe, a large number of people die because of this deadly disease. By diagnosing the disease in a primary stage, early treatment can be helpful to cure the patient. In this research paper, a method is proposed to diagnose the LD using supervised machine learning classification algorithms, namely logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, AdaBoost, KNN, linear discriminant analysis, gradient boosting and support vector machine (SVM). We also deployed a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) feature selection technique on our taken dataset to suggest the most highly correlated attributes of LD. The predictions with 10 fold cross-validation (CV) made by the algorithms are tested in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, precision and f1-score values to forecast the disease. It is observed that the decision tree algorithm has the best performance score where accuracy, precision, sensitivity and f1-score values are 94.295%, 92%, 99% and 96% respectively with the inclusion of LASSO. Furthermore, a comparison with recent studies is shown to prove the significance of the proposed system.
A secure and energy saving protocol for wireless sensor networksjournalBEEI
The research domain for wireless sensor networks (WSN) has been extensively conducted due to innovative technologies and research directions that have come up addressing the usability of WSN under various schemes. This domain permits dependable tracking of a diversity of environments for both military and civil applications. The key management mechanism is a primary protocol for keeping the privacy and confidentiality of the data transmitted among different sensor nodes in WSNs. Since node's size is small; they are intrinsically limited by inadequate resources such as battery life-time and memory capacity. The proposed secure and energy saving protocol (SESP) for wireless sensor networks) has a significant impact on the overall network life-time and energy dissipation. To encrypt sent messsages, the SESP uses the public-key cryptography’s concept. It depends on sensor nodes' identities (IDs) to prevent the messages repeated; making security goals- authentication, confidentiality, integrity, availability, and freshness to be achieved. Finally, simulation results show that the proposed approach produced better energy consumption and network life-time compared to LEACH protocol; sensors are dead after 900 rounds in the proposed SESP protocol. While, in the low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) scheme, the sensors are dead after 750 rounds.

Dynamic learning environment has emerged as a powerful platform in a modern e-learning system. The learning situation that constantly changing has forced the learning platform to adapt and personalize its learning resources for students. Evidence suggested that adaptation and personalization of e-learning systems (APLS) can be achieved by utilizing learner modeling, domain modeling, and instructional modeling. In the literature of APLS, questions have been raised about the role of individual characteristics that are relevant for adaptation. With several options, a new problem has been raised where the attributes of students in APLS often overlap and are not related between studies. Therefore, this study proposed a list of learner model attributes in dynamic learning to support adaptation and personalization. The study was conducted by exploring concepts from the literature selected based on the best criteria. Then, we described the results of important concepts in student modeling and provided definitions and examples of data values that researchers have used. Besides, we also discussed the implementation of the selected learner model in providing adaptation in dynamic learning.

Wireless HART stack using multiprocessor technique with laxity algorithmjournalBEEI
The use of a real-time operating system is required for the demarcation of industrial wireless sensor network (IWSN) stacks (RTOS). In the industrial world, a vast number of sensors are utilised to gather various types of data. The data gathered by the sensors cannot be prioritised ahead of time. Because all of the information is equally essential. As a result, a protocol stack is employed to guarantee that data is acquired and processed fairly. In IWSN, the protocol stack is implemented using RTOS. The data collected from IWSN sensor nodes is processed using non-preemptive scheduling and the protocol stack, and then sent in parallel to the IWSN's central controller. The real-time operating system (RTOS) is a process that occurs between hardware and software. Packets must be sent at a certain time. It's possible that some packets may collide during transmission. We're going to undertake this project to get around this collision. As a prototype, this project is divided into two parts. The first uses RTOS and the LPC2148 as a master node, while the second serves as a standard data collection node to which sensors are attached. Any controller may be used in the second part, depending on the situation. Wireless HART allows two nodes to communicate with each other.

In this paper, we study uplink-downlink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems by considering the secure performance at the physical layer. In the considered system model, the base station acts a relay to allow two users at the left side communicate with two users at the right side. By considering imperfect channel state information (CSI), the secure performance need be studied since an eavesdropper wants to overhear signals processed at the downlink. To provide secure performance metric, we derive exact expressions of secrecy outage probability (SOP) and and evaluating the impacts of main parameters on SOP metric. The important finding is that we can achieve the higher secrecy performance at high signal to noise ratio (SNR). Moreover, the numerical results demonstrate that the SOP tends to a constant at high SNR. Finally, our results show that the power allocation factors, target rates are main factors affecting to the secrecy performance of considered uplink-downlink NOMA systems.
Design of a dual-band antenna for energy harvesting applicationjournalBEEI
This report presents an investigation on how to improve the current dual-band antenna to enhance the better result of the antenna parameters for energy harvesting application. Besides that, to develop a new design and validate the antenna frequencies that will operate at 2.4 GHz and 5.4 GHz. At 5.4 GHz, more data can be transmitted compare to 2.4 GHz. However, 2.4 GHz has long distance of radiation, so it can be used when far away from the antenna module compare to 5 GHz that has short distance in radiation. The development of this project includes the scope of designing and testing of antenna using computer simulation technology (CST) 2018 software and vector network analyzer (VNA) equipment. In the process of designing, fundamental parameters of antenna are being measured and validated, in purpose to identify the better antenna performance.
Transforming data-centric eXtensible markup language into relational database...journalBEEI
eXtensible markup language (XML) appeared internationally as the format for data representation over the web. Yet, most organizations are still utilising relational databases as their database solutions. As such, it is crucial to provide seamless integration via effective transformation between these database infrastructures. In this paper, we propose XML-REG to bridge these two technologies based on node-based and path-based approaches. The node-based approach is good to annotate each positional node uniquely, while the path-based approach provides summarised path information to join the nodes. On top of that, a new range labelling is also proposed to annotate nodes uniquely by ensuring the structural relationships are maintained between nodes. If a new node is to be added to the document, re-labelling is not required as the new label will be assigned to the node via the new proposed labelling scheme. Experimental evaluations indicated that the performance of XML-REG exceeded XMap, XRecursive, XAncestor and Mini-XML concerning storing time, query retrieval time and scalability. This research produces a core framework for XML to relational databases (RDB) mapping, which could be adopted in various industries.

This paper presents the use of the inverse confidential technique on bilateral function with the territorial intensity-based optical flow to prove the effectiveness in noise resistance environment. In general, the image’s motion vector is coded by the technique called optical flow where the sequences of the image are used to determine the motion vector. But, the accuracy rate of the motion vector is reduced when the source of image sequences is interfered by noises.

The purpose of this paper is to propose an approach of re-organizing input data to recognize emotion based on short signal segments and increase the quality of emotional recognition using physiological signals. MIT's long physiological signal set was divided into two new datasets, with shorter and overlapped segments. Three different classification methods (support vector machine, random forest, and multilayer perceptron) were implemented to identify eight emotional states based on statistical features of each segment in these two datasets. By re-organizing the input dataset, the quality of recognition results was enhanced. The random forest shows the best classification result among three implemented classification methods, with an accuracy of 97.72% for eight emotional states, on the overlapped dataset. This approach shows that, by re-organizing the input dataset, the high accuracy of recognition results can be achieved without the use of EEG and ECG signals.
Parking detection system using background subtraction and HSV color segmentationjournalBEEI
Manual system vehicle parking makes finding vacant parking lots difficult, so it has to check directly to the vacant space. If many people do parking, then the time needed for it is very much or requires many people to handle it. This research develops a real-time parking system to detect parking. The system is designed using the HSV color segmentation method in determining the background image. In addition, the detection process uses the background subtraction method. Applying these two methods requires image preprocessing using several methods such as grayscaling, blurring (low-pass filter). In addition, it is followed by a thresholding and filtering process to get the best image in the detection process. In the process, there is a determination of the ROI to determine the focus area of the object identified as empty parking. The parking detection process produces the best average accuracy of 95.76%. The minimum threshold value of 255 pixels is 0.4. This value is the best value from 33 test data in several criteria, such as the time of capture, composition and color of the vehicle, the shape of the shadow of the object’s environment, and the intensity of light. This parking detection system can be implemented in real-time to determine the position of an empty place.
Quality of service performances of video and voice transmission in universal ...journalBEEI
The universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) has distinct benefits in that it supports a wide range of quality of service (QoS) criteria that users require in order to fulfill their requirements. The transmission of video and audio in real-time applications places a high demand on the cellular network, therefore QoS is a major problem in these applications. The ability to provide QoS in the UMTS backbone network necessitates an active QoS mechanism in order to maintain the necessary level of convenience on UMTS networks. For UMTS networks, investigation models for end-to-end QoS, total transmitted and received data, packet loss, and throughput providing techniques are run and assessed and the simulation results are examined. According to the results, appropriate QoS adaption allows for specific voice and video transmission. Finally, by analyzing existing QoS parameters, the QoS performance of 4G/UMTS networks may be improved.

Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

by the converter's mechanical components and cooling system, together with the rotor blades, shaft and
gearbox. This infers amid part selection and plan of control schemes the effect of areas on each other must be
well-thoroughly measured in order to attain an overall system performance that the outline is dynamic,
productive and cost effective [7].
Interconnection of microgrids is a useful method to accomplish higher usage of sustainable power
source, diminish transmission losses, bring down infrastructure capital investment, and accomplish higher
reliability of electricity supply. One of the sustainable sources, DFIG wind turbines have been utilized
generally as of late. Aside from that, microgrid power system experiences astonishing quick changes
regarding interest or generation arrays and trading actions that prevent the system operation and in addition
security. At the point when wind turbines are created with huge power, a few issues emerge in associating it
to control frameworks. This stability in the power system brings about the voltage and reactive power
problem of the system. Voltage and reactive power control problems are substantial for nonstop case stability
in power systems.
Correspondingly, it is basic to upgrade the stability in a microgrid, partaking a DFIG wind turbine
so as to improve the power system performance. The stability of a system identifies with its reaction to inputs
or disturbances. A system which stays in a constant state unless influenced by an external action and which
remains to a steady state when the external action is evacuated can be considered to be stable. There is a
requirement for stability analysis to decide how shut the system is to instability and to decide the steady-state
performance and transient response. Special techniques are fundamental so as to avert instability without
invading grid requirements [4].
This paper presents the stability check of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) micro grid power
system. In this study, a detail analysis was conducted on the dynamic behavior gained by a system.
Simulations are conducted by developing the corresponding model in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The setting for
stability analysis in a DFIG wind turbine based microgrid with various cases such as during islanding, fault
during islanding with and without capacitive bank. Apart from that, simulation results illustrate the efficiency
of the proposed method and objectives and its effect upon the stability of the microgrid. There are main
objectives for this study, namely to analyze the effect on stability during certain conditions in microgrid
power system, to design a microgrid consisting of a DFIG wind farm and to propose a strategy and system
that improves the performance reliability in microgrid power system.
2. MODEL DESCRIPTION OF DFIG SYSTEM
2.1. Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbine
DFIG can work in a higher wind speed range and yield or devour reactive power through the charge
gave by the rotor-side converter, contrasting with conventional squirrel-cage induction generator wind
turbine [8]. Basically, wind turbine driven on DFIG consists of Turbine and Drive Train, Wound Rotor
Induction Generator, Wind Turbine Control, and AC-DC-AC Converter. By improving the turbine speed,
DFIG permits separating most extreme vitality from the wind for low wind speeds, while restricting
mechanical stresses on the turbine amid whirlwinds. The perfect turbine speed making most extreme
mechanical vitality for a given breeze speed is relative to the breeze speed. In a commercial DFIG wind
turbine, there are diverse kinds of energy storage components, for example, rotor mass of generator and
dc-link capacitor of voltage source converter (VSC) for DFIG excitation [9].
2.2. AC-DC-AC converter
Whereas the wound rotor is fed from the Power Electronics Converter via slip rings to permit DFIG
to function at a variability of speeds in response to altering wind speed, the stator is directly connected to the
AC mains, Indisputably, the essential idea is to mediate a frequency converter between the variable
frequency induction generator and fixed frequency grid. The DC capacitor linking stator-and rotor-side
converters permits the capacity of energy from induction generator for further generation [10]. DC-link
voltage must be enhanced to a level higher than the amplitude of grid line-to-line voltage with a specific end
goal to accomplish full control of grid current.
2.3. Turbine and drive train
The power is transmitted from the rotor to the generator through the system comprising rotor shaft,
shaft-hub clamping lock, multiplication gearbox, flexible coupling and other devices in typical wind turbine
drivetrain [11].

2.4. Wound rotor induction generator
Regularly, the three phase generator rotor windings are associated with external resistors through a
power electronic converter. Variation in the compelling rotor resistance will bring about a variation of the
generator slip, which at last influences the rotational speed. The essential purpose behind utilizing a
doubly-fed induction generator is for the most part to deliver three-stage voltage whose stator frequency is
steady, for example, whose stator frequency stays equivalent to the system frequency of the ac power
network to which the generator is associated, in spite of contrasts in the generator rotor speed instigated by
varieties of the mechanical power gave by the prime mover (wind turbine rotor) driving the generator [12].
2.5. Wind turbine control
Wind Turbine Control can start and close down turbine operation alongside facilitates the operation
of numerous wind turbines in response of operating and environmental conditions. [13] expressed that a
controller is composed utilizing a sliding method of the terminal to diminish the system shifting by
connecting the versatile modeling theory to manage the unspecified parameters and control signal smoothing
with a specific end goal to enhance behavior of system outputs in the unstructured presence of vulnerabilities.
The connected powerful examination and strong controller plan for an acceptance generator unit with a
breeze turbine have been talked about [14]. To streamline wind turbine task some control plans, require a
strategy for evaluating the breeze speed [15].
3. RESEARCH METHOD
In this study, the assessment of stability for wind energy driven doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)
is conducted. The system focuses on how the voltage-current profile at load, real power at load and reactive
power at load will be affected during:
a. Low Load (1MW)
1) During islanding without fault and without capacitive bank
2) During islanding without fault and with capacitive bank
3) During islanding with fault and without capacitive bank
4) During islanding with fault and with capacitive bank
b. High Load (100MW)
1) During islanding without fault and without capacitive bank
2) During islanding without fault and with capacitive bank
3) During islanding with fault and without capacitive bank
4) During islanding with fault and with capacitive bank
In this system, the power of wind turbine is 9MW consist of six 1.5MW connected to 25kV
distribution system exports power to a 154kV grid through a 26.5km, 25-kV feeder in this system. This wind
turbine system is included in the induction motor with power electronic IGBT converters.
4. RESULTS AND ANALYSIS
To harness the wind power efficiently the most reliable system in the present era is grid connected
doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). Therefore, it is very crucial to know how the voltage-current profile,
real power and reactive power of the overall power system in order to maintain the system stability. Apart
from that, the comparison is done when capacitive bank is added to compensate the power quality of the
system. Thus, through the collected result, the work is classified into various conditions of simulation. In
each condition, the result of the simulations are compared in order to observe the differences.
Table 1 tabulates the results comparison of voltage-current profile during islanding for low load and
high load. Four conditions have been considered in this study, namely (a) without fault and without
capacitive bank, (b) without fault and with capacitive bank, (c) with fault and without capacitive bank and d)
with fault and with capacitive bank. These results are presented in time domain for both the low load and
high load. The load condition considers 1 MW, while the high load considers 100 MW. For each load
condition, 2 responses are displayed to represent the voltage and current responses. The first waveform is the
voltage response, while the second one is the current response.
From the table, the high load connected wind turbine experiences superior performance in both the
voltage and current waveforms. This phenomenon happens to all the four conditions as can be observed in
the table. In high load connected to wind turbine, the performance of the system is more stable with less
fluctuations. For low load connected to the wind turbine, it is observed that all the 2 conditions without the
capacitive bank exhibit oscillatory response in the beginning, followed by a long-time settlement. On the
other hand, with the capacitive bank connected to the system; compensation process has been accommodated.

combines the variations in active power and reactive power. The active power load is set constant worth 1
MW throughout the whole study, while the reactive power load varies from 10 VAR to 1MVAR as can be
referred to the table.

It is observed that, the increases from 17.03 kV to its maximum value worth 31.98 kV at the highest
reactive power load. The same phenomenon occurs for current and real power. Nevertheless, the voltage and
current increment do not happen at low VAR value, i.e. 10 VAR and 100 VAR. Negative values of VAR as
the output imply that reactive powers are absorbed by the system.
Table 3 tabulates the comparison result collected during islanding without fault and with capacitive
bank. These are the results collected without fault, but capacitive bank was connected to the system. In
general, the same load variations were subjected to the system. With the capacitive bank connected to the
system, higher current and voltage values have been achieved as compared to the results in Table 2. This
implies that the presence of capacitive bank in the system has helped increased the voltage and current I the
system. The same phenomenon is experienced by the real power and reactive power in the system.

and current values are not consistent.

The same phenomenon also happens for both the real and reactive power values. The highest
voltage and current values are experienced at P=1MW and Q=10kVAR.The system also absorbs reactive
power at all the load variations as can be observed from the same table.
Table 5 shows the results for voltage, current, real power and reactive power when the load is 1 MW
and Q from 10 VAR to 100 MVAR. This load variation is the same as those in all the previous cases, i.e.
Table 1 to Table 4. For voltage and current, the results are decreasing until 1 kVAR and increase back until 1
MVAR. Real power results do not have pattern. In general, the profiles of all the properties such as the
voltage, current, real power and reactive power are not consistent.

The results for high loading conditions worth 100 MW are tabulated in Tables 6, 7, 8 and 9. Table 6
tabulates the comparison result collected during islanding without fault and without capacitive bank. This
table shows the results for voltage, current, real power and reactive power when the load is 1 MW and Q
from 10 VAR to 100 MVAR. The voltage and current values are almost consistent for all the loading
conditions. The same phenomenon also happens to the real power of the system. However, the reactive
power values are not consistent for all the load values.

The results for comparison during islanding without fault and with capacitive bank are tabulated in
Table 7. Similar load variations are subjected to the system. From the table, the values for voltage, current
and real power are consistent for all the load values. Apparently, the presence of capacitive bank has made
the voltage, current and real power to be consistent due to the element of compensation process. However,
the values for reactive power are not consistent due to different load values.

implies that the fault occurrence has made the voltage, current and real power to be consistent.

Table 8 shows the results for voltage, current, real power and reactive power when the load is 1 MW
and Q from 10 VAR to 100 MVAR. For voltage, current and real power, the results are increasing. It is
different for reactive power. Results for reactive power vary for all the loads. The reactive power fluctuates
when different reactive load value is gradually subjected to the system. Table 9 tabulates the comparison
result collected during islanding with fault and with the presence of capacitive bank. Similar load values were
subjected to the system. From the table, the values for voltage, current and real power are consistent for all
load values subjected to the system. However, the reactive power of the system fluctuates with respect to the
load variation. With the presence of capacitive bank in the system during fault for high loading condition, it
does not give much impact to all the electrical properties. Comparison can be made between Table 8 and
Table 9.

Table 2 until Table 9 showed the comparisons between the presence and absence of fault and
capacitive bank respectively. For high loading condition, the voltage-current profile, real power and reactive
power are stable. The profiles do not show any major fluctuations and it can be seen that the system
performance is reliable and better than the performance during low loading condition.
5. CONCLUSION
This paper has presented stability check of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) micro grid power
system. In this study, the modeling and stability assessment of doubly fed induction generator wind turbine
micro grid power system has been proposed. A comparison of voltage-current profile, real power and
reactive power of the load between low load and high load conditions has been studied. Voltage and current
profile of the system are more stable with less fluctuation by adding capacitive bank compared to without
capacitive bank. The analysis exhibits stable voltage and current profile when the capacitive bank is added to
the grid. In overall conditions of the proposed model gave valuable understanding into the stability
performance of the wind turbine equipped with a DFIG and the interaction between the wind farm and the
main system.
