A variable speed wind turbine simulator is designed and implemented for the simulation of wind power generation system. The control algorithm decides the shaft torque delivered to generator taking into consideration the wind speed, the generator rpm, and the rotor blade inertia. It is shown that the proposed control algorithm can emulate the dynamic behavior of actual wind turbine through simulations and experimental.

In this paper, the method for effective stability analysis of Jeju power system in 2011 is proposed. The stability analysis of Jeju power system was carried out by using proposed method In case of Jeju power system with wind turbine generators or without wind turbine generators, including CSC HVDC or VSC HVDC. The steady-state stability is validated by SCR and ESCR, PV curve, QV curve. And the transient stability is analyzed by CCT(Critical Clearing Time). VSC HVDC has more advantages than CSV HVDC on the stability. Also, Jeju power system without wind turbine generators has more advantages than Jeju power system with Wind Turbine Generators on the stability.

A small-scale wind power generation system with a switched-mode rectifier(SMR) is proposed. To simplify the converter circuit of the wind power generation system, the synchronous inductors of the permanent magnet synchronous generator(PMSG) replace the inductor for the boost converter. The sensorless maximum power point tracking(MPPT) control is carried out for the wind power generation system with the SMR. The proposed system is verified through the simulations and the experiments.

Photovoltaic energy and wind energy are highly dependent on the season, time and extremely intermittent energy sources. Because of these reasons, in view of the reliability the photovoltaic and the wind power generation system have many problems(energy conversion, energy storage, load control etc.) comparing with conventional power plant. In order to solve these existing problems, hybrid generation system composed of photovoltaic(500W) and wind power system(400W) was suggested But, hybrid generation system cannot always generate stable output due to the varying weather condition So, the auxiliary power compensation unit that uses elastic energy of spiral spring was added to hybrid generation system for the present study. It was partly confirmed that hybrid generation system was generated a stable outputs by spiral spring was continuously provided to load.

Generation of electricity using wind power has received considerable attention worldwide in recent years. In order to investigate the impacts of the integration of wind farm into utilities' network, various studies have been investigated. One such impact is related to the Critical Clearing Time (CCT) of wind power generation system. This paper reports investigation into the factors that influence the transient behavior of the wind power generation system following network fault conditions. It is shown that CCT can be affected by various factors contributed by the network. Such factors include capacity of wind power, power factor, the length of the interfacing line, etc. This investigation is conducted on a simulated grid-connected wind farm using Digsilent Power Factory.

By combining a wind turbine with an energy storage system (ESS), we are able to attenuate the intermittent wind power characteristic making the power derived from a wind farm dispatchable. This paper evaluates the influence of the phase delay of the low-pass filter in the conventional smoothing power control on the ESS capacity; longer phase delays require a larger ESS capacity. In order to eliminate the effect of the phase delay, we optimize the power dispatch using a zero-phase low-pass filter that results in a non-delayed response in the power dispatch. The proposed power dispatching method significantly minimizes the ESS capacity. In addition, the zero-phase low-pass filter, which is a symmetrical forward-reverse finite impulse response type, is designed simply with a small number of coefficients. Therefore, the proposed dispatching method is not only optimal, but can also be feasibly applied to real wind farms. The efficacy of the proposed dispatching method is verified by integrating a 3 MW wind turbine into the grid using wind data measured on Jeju Island.

This paper introduces a hardware simulator for the LVRT operation analysis of the grid-tied PMSG wind power system with a power dissipation circuit. The power dissipation circuit, which is composed of chopper and resistor, suppresses the sudden increase of DC-link voltage in the back-to-back converter of the grid-tied PMSG wind power system. The LVRT operation was first analyzed using computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC. A wind power simulator including the power dissipation circuit and the fault simulator composed of variac and IGBT were built to analyze the LVRT operation. Various experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the power dissipation circuit for the LVRT operation. The developed hardware simulator can be extensively utilized for the analysis of various LVRT operations of the grid-tied wind power system.

In this paper, doubly-fed induction-type wind power generation system simulation model for grid connection is developed. The simulation model is based on PSCAD/EMTDC and consists of rotor-blade, blade controller, generator power converter and generator controller Blade controller controls the blade pitch angle for starting, peak power limiting and emergency condition. Generator controller controls the generator output power to maximize the system efficiency. Simulation results are shown for the variable wind speed conditions. The simulation model can be utilized for study of actual interaction between wind turbine and grid for reliable operation and protection of power system.

As the global to increase the wind power penetration in the power system, grid-integration standards have been proposed for the stable integration of the large-scale wind farm. Particularly, the low voltage ride through function has been emphasized, as it relates to the voltage and reactive power control of the wind turbine and the rest generators. This paper proposes the non-wind power generator control method in order to improve the wind power penetration. To prove the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, the simulation study is implemented in the Jeju power system. It can improve the wind power penetration by the effective control of the control generators.

An offshore wind power plant (WPP) is very expensive and different from an onshore wind power system in many ways. There has been a continuous increase in the capacity of the offshore WPPs. Therefore it is essential to analyze the feasibility and reliability of the offshore wind power to optimize their redundancy. Besides, it is very important to study a planning for grid interconnection of adjacent offshore WPPs. This paper proposes a economic evaluation method to interconnect with adjacent offshore substations in offshore wind power grid. Also, we suggest the probabilistic reliability method to calculate a probabilistic power output of the wind turbine and a cost of the expected energy not supplied that is used as the reliability index of the power system.
