Hardware in the Loop Real-time Simulation of Doubly Fed Off-grid Wind Power System
Abstract Hardware in the Loop (HIL) semi-physical real-time simulation can shorten the research period and complete the harsh working condition test, which is difficult to be carried out on the physical platform. Taking the off-grid Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) wind power system as the research object, this paper proposes the bottom modelling method of HIL real-time simulation. Using the Hardware Description Language VERILOG, the bottom real-time models of DFIG, converter and load are designed on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), connected with the real controller, and the HIL real-time simulation platform is constructed. The experiments of conventional working conditions and unbalance load are carried out on the HIL platform and the physical platform. The operation speed of the HIL platform reaches 0.48μs. Compared with the physical platform, the error of HIL platform is between 1.17 ~ 3.29% under various working conditions.
