Power oscillation damping controller for fully rated converter wind turbines

Abstract

A power oscillation damping controller for fully rated converter wind turbines was investigated. Small signal analysis and time domain simulations were used to investigate the performance of the fully rated converter wind turbine with a power oscillation damping controller when connected to a single bus representation of the large power system. A power oscillation damping controller for fully rated converter wind turbines was shown to improve network damping. Simulation results also show that, with a power oscillation damping controller incorporated into the grid side converter of fully rated converter wind turbines, decoupling between the generator and grid is maintained.
