Abstract
Knowledge of interactions between wind turbines and network becomes essential as the number of wind turbines installed in the network increases. Thus, a simulation environment with accurate network and wind turbine models is needed. In this paper, a novel real-time simulation environment for wind turbine and grid interaction studies is presented. The network is simulated with Real-Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) and the wind turbine with its power electronic equipments in dSPACE. First, the wind turbine model is introduced. Next, real-time simulation results during three-phase short-circuit and automatic reclosing are presented and compared to Simulink results in order to verify the real-time model. Discussions about the reliability and usefulness of the environment are also performed.Description
