Linear Feedback Control Research on Hopf Bifurcation in Wind Power System

Hopf bifurcation frequently results in periodical oscillation instability in the nonlinear system. For Hopf bifurcation at equilibrium point in the wind power system, Hopf bifurcation point of the wind power system with static var compensator is calculated based on the continuation method. The analysis shows that the increase of reactive power will lead to Hopf bifurcation, static var compensation can delay Hopf bifurcation and improve voltage stability region via reactive power compensation, in order to eliminate Hopf bifurcation, a unified and simple linear feedback control method is adopted. The results indicate that the method put forward in the research is effective to eliminate Hopf bifurcation in the wind power system
