The development of wind turbine power generation has grown during the past ten years. An important question, when installing wind turbines with the generator connected directly to the grid, is holt much the voltage quality will be affected by the uneven power production and by the connection of the wind turbine to the grid. This paper presents the voltage fluctuation of grid-connected WTG(wind turbine generators) by MATLAB/Simulink.

This paper studies the method to predict voltage variation that can be presented in the case of operating a small-sized wind turbine in grid connection to the isolated small-sized power system. In order to do this, it makes up the simplified simulation model of the existing power plant connected to the isolated system, load, transformer, and wind turbine on the basis of PSCAD/EMTDC and compares them with the operating characteristics of the actual established wind turbine. In particular, it suggests a simplified model formed with equivalent impedance of the power system network including the load to analytically predict voltage variation at the connected point. It also confirms that the voltage variation amount calculated by the suggested method accords well with both simulation and actually measured data. The results can be utilized as a tool to ensure security and reliability in the stage of system design and preliminary investigation of a small-sized grid connected wind turbine.

This paper proposed a simple and helpful analysis model of voltage variation in order to predict the voltage variation at PCC (Point of Common Coupling), when a wind turbine is connected in an isolated grid. The PCC voltage flucuates when the wind turbine outputs active power to an isolated grid. This voltage variation is proportional to the product of the line impedance from the ideal generator to the PCC and the wind turbine output current. And It is different according as where wind turbine is connected. To solve the problem of voltage variation, this paper proposed the reactive power control. To verify the proposed analysis model, this paper utilized PSCAD/EMTDC Simulation and the field measurement data of the voltage variation during the wind power generation.

This paper proposes a protection algorithm for a wind turbine generator (WTG) in a large wind farm. To minimize the outage section, a protection relay for a WTG should operate instantaneously for an internal fault or a connected feeder fault, whereas the relay should not operate for an internal fault of another WTG connected to the same feeder or an adjacent feeder fault. In addition, the relay should operate with a delay for an inter-tie fault or a grid fault. An internal fault of another WTG connected to the same feeder or an adjacent feeder fault, where the relay should not operate, is determined based on the magnitude of the positive sequence current. To differentiate an internal fault or a connected feeder fault from an inter-tie fault or a grid fault, the phase angle of the negative sequence current is used to distinguish a fault type. The magnitude of the positive sequence current is then used to decide either instantaneous operation or delayed operation. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified under various fault conditions with EMTP-RV generated data. The results indicate that the algorithm can successfully distinguish instantaneous operation, delayed operation, or non-operation depending on fault positions and types.

This paper presents a pitch angle controller of a grid-connected wind turbine system for extracting maximum power from wind and implements a modeling and simulation of the wind turbine system on MATLAB/Simulink. It discusses the maximum power control algorithm for the wind turbine and presents, in a graphical form, the relationship of wind turbine output, rotor speed, and power coefficient with wind speed when the wind turbine is operated under the maximum power control algorithm. The objective of pitch angle control is to extract maximum power from wind and is achieved by regulating the blade pitch angle during above-rated wind speeds in order to bypass excessive energy in the wind. Case studies demonstrate that the pitch angle control is carried out to achieve maximum power extraction during above-rated wind speeds and effectiveness of the proposed controller would be satisfactory.

As more and more renewable energy resources are connected into the existing power system and their generation capacities are increasing, the need for regulations to minimize their impacts on the power grid is increasingly growing. And minimizing the irregular impacts made by grid-connected wind generators is important, since the output power generated by renewable energy resources can be changed easily by the weather condition and surrounding environment. In South Korea, an operational technical standard for distributed generation is used as a regulation, in which renewable energy sources including wind power are considered as a kind of distributed generation. In this paper, an international standard, IEC 61400-21, for the grid-connected wind turbine generating system(WTGS) will be introduced and a comprehensive and detailed review on the measuring methods of power quality characteristic parameters for WTGS based on the related IEC standards will be presented. Additionally, some prerequisites for applying the international standards to KEPCO system will be proposed.

This paper presents a modeling and simulation of a grid-connected wind turbine generation system with respect to wind variations, starting of large induction motor and three-phase fault in the system, and investigates voltage variations of the system for disturbances. It describes the modeling of the wind turbine system including the drive train model, induction generator model, and grid-interface model on MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results show the variation of the generator torque, the generator rotor speed, the pitch angle, terminal voltage, system voltage, fault current, and real/reactive power output, etc. Case studies demonstrate that the pitch angle control is carried out to achieve maximum power extraction for wind speed variations, starting of a large induction motor causes a voltage sag due to a large starting current, and a fault on the system influences on the output of the wind turbine generator.
