We carried out the power performance evaluation for 1.5 MW${\times}$2 by using anemometer installed on WTGS(Wind Turbine Generator System) in the wind farm at Shi-hwa bang-a-mu-ri. In this paper, we compared and analyzed the performance of guaranteed output and measured output of WTGS which includes output curve, output coefficient, AEP(Annual Energy Product) and availability, etc.. The power performance of WTGS was optimized in the low wind speed sections(3 m/s ~ 10 m/s) and the measured output was more produced by AEP 109 % and availability 112 % than the guaranteed output. In addition, we could also cut the high cost of testing WTGS performance by using anemometer as a substitute for weather mast.

The wind energy is one of the most prospective resources in renewable energy. However, the WTGS shouldn't be installed indiscriminately because the power system can be negatively influenced by a variable and uncertain nature of the wind energy. It is the reason why it has to be limited to install the WTGS thoughtlessly mentioned above that support the importance of the maximum penetration limit of wind power. It may required that power system operators suggests a new way of power system operation as percentage of the WTGS increase in the existing power system. The wind power is fixed in a limited area, so using rate of the wind power will be increased by installing additional WTGS. In this paper, we have studied on economic evaluation of the wind capacity increased by restricting the output of the WTGS as the way to increase the wind capacity.

In this paper, we have studied about minimizing the Energy Storage System (ESS) capacity for mitigating the fluctuation of Wind Turbine Generation System (WTGS) by using Electric Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC) and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). In this case, they have some different characteristics: The EDLC has the ability of generating the output power at high frequency. Thus, it is able to reduce the fluctuation of WTGS in spite of high cost. The BESS, by using Li-Ion battery, takes the advantage of high energy density, however it is limited to use at low frequency response. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, simulations are carried out with the actual data of 2MW WTGS in case of worst fluctuation of WTGS is happened. By comparing simulation results, this method shows the excellent performance. Therefore, it is very useful for understanding and minimizing the ESS capacity for mitigating the fluctuation of WTGS.

Load calculation is indispensable for the construction of a large wind turbine generator system (WTGS). In procedures of load calculation, all conditions affecting to WTGS such as environment of site, operation, transport and installation have to be considered systematically. So the certification of WTGS is issued by assuring the load calculation. This work shows the generals of load calculation briefly and introduces the characteristics and results of load calculations for the 750 kW direct-drive WTGS (KBP-750D) which is under development by the consortium of POSTECH and UNISON.

본 논문에서는 풍력 발전시스템의 피치 제어 알고리즘 설계 기법을 검토하고 비선형 시뮬레이션을 수행한 결과를 제시한다. 풍력 발전시스템을 다몸체 시스템으로 간주하고 로터 블레이드에 작용하는 공력 및 토크 계산을 위해 블레이드 요소 및 모멘텀 이론을 근거로 공력 모델링을 수행하였다. 제어기 설계를 위해, 풍력 발전시스템은 서로 상대적으로 구속한 체 운동하는 1 자유도 시스템으로 가정하여 선형 방정식을 수립하고, 로터 회전속도를 제어하기 위해 PID 제어기를 설계하였다. FORTRAN 언어를 기반으로 작성된 비선형 시뮬레이터 WINSIM을 이용하여 다양한 풍속 시나리오와 운전 방식에서 제어기의 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다.

풍력발전시스템의 실제 운용을 위해서는 성능 예측, 피치 제어, 운용 기법 최적화 등에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 최근에는 새로운 형태의 이중 로터 풍력발전시스템이 개발되어 시험 운전 중에 있다. 이 풍력발전시스템의 특징은 upwind와 downwind 형태의 두개의 로터 시스템이 수평으로 결합되어 있으며, 발전기는 타워 안쪽에 수직으로 설치되어 있다는 점이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 새로운 형식의 풍력발전시스템의 성능 예측 및 제어 시스템 실험을 위한 시뮬레이션 소프트웨어를 소개하고자 한다. 특히 이 소프트웨어는 FORTRAN과 Matlab/Simulink를 이용하여 계산의 신속성 및 사용자 편의 제공을 고려하여 개발되었다.

This paper presents the modeling and analysis of V47-660 kW wind turbine generation system(WTGS) in Jeju wind farm using Psim program. Generally, WTGS is composed of complicated machinery. So it is very difficult to present the mathematic model. This means that WTGS has a nonlinear system. Using the real output data from V47 WTGS for one year, it is simply possible to express the rotor and gear coupling system as a torque generator according to wind speed. Also, the modeling of electrical system can be able to present using the data sheet from the company. To analyze the proposed method, results of computer simulation using Psim program are presented to support the discussion.

In modern society, the number of industrial customers using equipment sensitive particularly to voltage sags is rapidly increasing. As voltage sags can cause loss of information as well as false operation of the control device, it results in the vast economic damage in industrial processes. One way to mitigate voltage sags in the sensitive loads is the installation of distributed generation (DGs) on the periphery of these loads. In addition, renewable energy sources are currently in the spot light as the potential solution for the energy crisis and environmental issues. In particular, wind power generation which is connected to a grid is rising rapidly because it is energy efficient and also economically feasible compared to other renewable energy sources. On the basis of the above information, in this paper, with Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs) installed nearby the sensitive load, the analysis of the mitigating effect comparison by types of WTGs is performed using voltage sag assessment on the IEEE-30 bus test system. That is, the areas of vulnerability according to types of WTGs are expected to be different by how much reactive power is produced or consumed as WTG reactive power capability is related to the types of WTGs. Using the concept of 'Vulnerable area' with the failure rate for buses and lines, the annual number of voltage sags at the sensitive load with the installation of WTGs per type is studied. This research will be anticipated to be useful data when determining the interconnection of wind power generation in the power system with the consideration of voltage sags.

Considering the randomness and uncertainty of wind power, a reliability model of WTGs is established based on the combination of the Weibull distribution and the Markov chain. To analyze the failure mode quickly, we use the switch-section partitioning method. After defining the first-level load zone node, we can obtain the supply power sets of the first-level load zone nodes with each WTG. Based on the supply sets, we propose the dynamic division strategy of island operation. By adopting the fault analysis method with the attributes defined in the switch-section, we evaluate the reliability of the distribution network with WTGs using a sequential Monte Carlo simulation method. Finally, using the IEEE RBTS Bus6 test system, we demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed model and method by comparing different schemes to access the WTGs.
