The first-swing stability of synchronous generators (SGs) has a close relationship with synchronizing ability of the grid and inertia characteristic of all the generators. This paper studies inertia characteristic of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbine (WT) under transient control to analyze its impact on the first-swing stability of SGs. First, an analytic model of DFIG-based WT following the concept of motion equation is developed to describe and explain its inertia characteristic. The foundation is the definition of internal voltage of DFIG. Based on the model, an important conclusion is drawn that DFIG-based WT under transient control during grid fault has adjustable inertia characteristic that has a clear link with control parameters. Then, the impacts of transient control parameter of DFIG-based WT on the first-swing stability of SGs are studied through numerical simulation. Finally, the impact mechanism of transient control of DFIG-based WT on the first-swing stability of SGs is clearly explained by physical concept of inertia characteristic and synchronizing force.
