Control Interaction

Large-scale wind turbine generators with power electronic converters that operate near series compensated transmission lines are susceptible to un-damped sub-synchronous oscillations. This sub-synchronous oscillation is called Sub-synchronous Control Interaction (SSCI). With the rapid development of wind power technology, SSCI emerges as a new sub-synchronous oscillation phenomenon. The first SSCI event occurred for a wind farm in America in2009, which resulted in damage to the wind turbines. The origin of SSCI is presented and its characteristics of different types of wind turbines are summarized. Then the research prospect on this field is explored.

Control Interaction

Large-scale wind turbine generators with power electronic converters that operate near series compensated transmission lines are susceptible to un-damped sub-synchronous oscillations. This sub-synchronous oscillation is called Sub-synchronous Control Interaction (SSCI). Based on PSCAD / EMTDC simulation platform the establishment of Double Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) equivalent inverter controlled sources and network model, and verify the correctness of the equivalent model. Analysis the impact of series compensation and rotor-side converter PI parameters characteristic of the SSCI based on test signal method and time-domain simulation method. The results show that increasing the degree of series compensation , inner gain constant increases and inner integral time decreases will help increase SSCI, outer ring of PI parameters has little effect on the SSCI .

Integration of wind energy resources into the grid creates several challenges for power system dynamics. More specifically, Type-3 wind turbines are susceptible to subsynchronous control interactions (SSCIs) when they become radially connected to a series-compensated transmission line. SSCIs can cause disruptions in power generation and can result in significant damage to wind farm (WF) components and equipment. This paper proposes an approach to mitigate SSCIs using an online frequency scan, with optimized phase angles of voltage harmonic injection to maintain steady-state operation, to modify the controllers or the operating conditions of the wind turbine. The proposed strategy is simulated in PSCAD/EMTDC software on the IEEE second benchmark model for subsynchronous resonance. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of this strategy by ensuring oscillations do not grow.

Location Methods

Accurate and reliable fault location method for alternating current (AC) transmission lines is essential to the fault recovery. MMC-based converter brings exclusive non-linear characteristics to AC networks under single-phase-to-ground faults, thus influencing the performance of the fault location method. Fault characteristics are related to the control strategies of the converter. However, the existing fault location methods do not take the control strategies into account, with further study being required to solve this problem. The influence of the control strategies to the fault compound sequence network is analyzed in this paper first. Then, a unique boundary condition that the fault voltage and negative-sequence fault current merely meet the direct proportion linear relationship at the fault point, is derived. Based on these, a unary linear regression analysis is performed, and the fault can be located according to the minimum residual sum function principle. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by PSCAD/EMTDC simulation platform. A large number of simulation results are used to verify the advantages on sampling frequency, fault resistance, and fault distance. More importantly, it provides a higher ranging precision and has extensive applicability.
