The paper describes a technique for controlling a doubly fed induction generator driven by a windmill, or other form of variable-speed prime mover, to provide power generation into the national grid system. The secondary circuit of the generator is supplied at a variable frequency from a current source inverter which for test purposes is rated to allow energy recovery, from a simulated windmill, from maximum speed to standstill. To overcome the stability problems normally associated with doubly fed machines a novel signal generator, which is locked in phase with the rotor EMF, controls the secondary power to provide operation over a wide range of subsynchronous and supersynchronous speeds. Consideration of power flow enables the VA rating of the secondary power source to be determined as a function of the gear ratio and online operating range of the system. A simple current source model is used to predict performance which is compared with experimental results. The results indicate a viable system, and suggestions for further work are proposed
