The power turbines that are used with aero-derivative gas generators have been upgraded in response to performance improvements in these gas generators. The manner in which power turbine designs have evolved to cope with higher temperatures and greater work extraction levels is explained. The test program for the latest design is described and typical performance and mechanical development results are presented.

A double-skinned composite tubular (DSCT) offshore wind power tower was designed. Because a heavy wind power turbine is supported by a slender tower, the actual resisting moment capacity of the tower against wind load becomes less than its original moment capacity as its lateral displacement increases. Therefore, its actual moment capacity should be found for safe design by considering large displacement effect. In this study, 40 sections of DSCT wind power towers were designed for a 5.0MW turbine and the performances of the designed 40 sections were analyzed with and without considerations of large displacement effect. In designing and analyzing them, the material nonlinearity and the confining effect of concrete considered. The comparison of the analysis results showed the moment capacity loss of the wind power tower by the mass of the turbine is significant and the large displacement effect should be considered for the safe design of the wind power tower.

This work presents a hydromechanical transmission coupled to an electric AC motor and DC generator to simulate a wind power turbine drive train. The goal of this project was to demonstrate and simulate the ability of a hydrostatic variable ratio system to produce constant electric power at varying wind speeds. The experimental results show that the system can maintain a constant voltage when a 40% variation in input speed is produced. An accompanying computer simulation of the system was built and experimentally validated showing a discrete error no larger than 12%. Both the simulation and the experimental results show that the electrical power output can be regulated further if an energy storage device is used to absorb voltage spikes produced by abrupt changes in wind speed or wind direction.

In this paper, a novel method to determine the voltage stability margin of the wind power integrated system using PQ curve is proposed, in which the wind power turbine output characteristics and the load characteristics are both considered. The PQ curve under different wind power turbine output conditions can be constructed that also combines the mathematical model of different load characteristics. The geometric distance between the node power point and the border of the PQ curve and its corresponding probability are calculated and multiplied as margin. Thus the weakest bus can be determined. Finally, taking the operation mode data about the IEEE-30 power grid for calculation example, the proposed method is effectively validated by the results on the method of sensitivity analysis based on voltage stability margin.
