Modeling Wind Turbines in the Simulation of Power System DynamicsThis paper deals with the modeling of variable speed wind turbines for stability studies. Using the space-phasor representation and the fundamental relationships governing the operation of the machine quasi stationary model, suitable control algorithms for the simulation of the doubly-fed induction machine (DFIM) as well as the permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) operating on an interconnected system are developed. The control schemes include the pitch-angle/speed control and the decoupled control of the real and reactive power outputs. As an additional modeling option, the generic model for variable speed machine has been introduced. The models were then implemented on a representative test network, and simulations have been carried out to observe the response of the control system to typical abnormal situations such as three phase grid faults to compare the accuracy of the generic models with the detailed quasi-stationary (QSS) models.

With high levels of wind energy penetration, the frequency response of isolated power systems is more likely to be affected in the event of a sudden frequency disturbance or fluctuating wind conditions. In order to minimize excessive frequency deviations, several techniques and control strategies involving Variable Speed Wind Turbines (VSWTs) have been investigated in isolated power systems. In this paper, the main benefits and disadvantages of introducing VSWTs—both their inertial contribution and primary frequency regulation—in an exclusively renewable isolated power system have been analyzed. Special attention has been paid to the influence of the delays of control signals in the wind farm when VSWTs provide primary regulation as well as to the wind power reserve value which is needed. To achieve this objective, a methodology has been proposed and applied to a case study: El Hierro power system. A mathematical dynamic model of the isolated power system, including exclusively renewable technologies, has been described. Representative generation schedules and wind speed signals have been fixed according to the observed system. Finally, in order to obtain conclusions, realistic system events such as fluctuations in wind speed and the outage of the generation unit with the higher assigned power in the power system have been simulated.

Frequency stability of the power system is impacted by the increasing penetration of wind power because the wind power is intermittent. Meanwhile, sometimes the demand side loads increase quickly to require more power than total power produced. So balancing the active power in the power system to maintain the frequency is the main challenge of the high penetration of wind power to the smart grid. This paper proposes coordination rotor speed control (RSC), pitch angle control (PAC) and inertial control (IC) to control wind turbines, together with demand side response (DSR) participating in frequency regulation to balance active power in the power system. Firstly, the model of a single area load frequency control (LFC) system is obtained, which includes variable-speed wind turbines (VSWT) and DSR containing aggregated air conditioners and plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs). Then the RSC, PAC and IC, which controls wind turbines participating in frequency regulation in the power system, are introduced, respectively. Finally, the coordination of these three methods for wind turbines in different wind speeds is proposed. Case studies are carried out for the single area LFC system with a wind farm and DSR supported grid frequency. Coordination RSC and PAC combined IC are used to control wind turbines with DSR to balance active power in the power system. The proposed method used in the power system with high penetration of wind power and fluctuation of demand load is tested, respectively. Coordinated RSC or PAC with DSR can increase penetration of wind power and reduce peak load.

The variable-speed doubly-fed wind turbines (DFIG) were able to participate in frequency regulation by adding an additional frequency control. The influences exerted by the additional frequency control of DFIG units and conventional units governors on system frequency emergency control measures were analyzed. When the power shortage is small, it is recommended to consider the DFIG units to participate in frequency regulation, While a large power shortage it is not recommended.
