Abstract

Describes the comparative results obtained from digital and hybrid simulation studies on a variable speed wind generator interconnected to the utility grid. The wind generator is a vertical-axis Darrieus type coupled to a synchronous machine by a gear-box; the synchronous machine is connected to the AC utility grid through a static frequency converter. Digital simulation results have been obtained using CSMP software; these results are compared with those obtained from a real-time hybrid simulator that in turn uses a part of the IREQ HVDC simulator. The agreement between hybrid and digital simulation results is generally good. The results demonstrate that the digital simulation reproduces the dynamic behaviour of the system in a satisfactory manner and thus constitutes a valid tool for the design of the control systems of the wind generator.
