Description
Summary:In recent years, due to the several advantages of permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG), the number of wind farms utilizing this technology has been significantly grown. The determination of the failure mechanism in these devices is the major challenge which has been addressed in many studies. Particularly, response to grid code compliance by wind power in the voltage drop situation needs to be comprehensively analyzed. In this paper, a small signal model of a PMSG-based wind turbine for low voltage ride-through (LVRT) and suitable for stability and artificial intelligent studies is presented. Accordingly, the generator side converter controls the dc-link voltage, and the maximum power point tracking is performed by the grid side converter. Given the proposed model, the speed of the simulation for stability analysis studies can be significantly increased by intelligent methods. Furthermore, the simplified approach can be achieved for calculating the optimal coefficients of the proportionality-integral controller by intelligent methods in a short time. By simulating the proposed small-signal model and comparing it with the block-based simulation in MATLAB/SIMULINK software, the appropriate accuracy and efficiency of the proposed model are confirmed.
