State-Space Modeling of Wind Turbine Generators for Power System Studies

摘要

Mathematical modeling of synchronous and induction generators for wind turbines using state-space representations is presented. Emphasis is given to those models suitable for control schemes of variable-speed wind turbines and their application for different power system studies. The state-space representations provide a convenient way to assess different configurations of fixed and variable-speed wind turbines based on synchronous and induction generators. The modeling approach here presented allows both transient and small-signal stability analysis. As a case study, the performance of fixed and variable-speed wind turbines under faults and voltage sags is assessed. The state-space models are used to investigate the capability of different wind turbine technologies to satisfy Grid Code requirements. An eigenanalysis is included to show the flexibility of the models.
