Modelling and validation of Siemens Wind Power VS wind turbines and park controllers for dynamic RMS simulations using DIgSILENT PowerFactory simulation program

This project is scheduled from February to July 2009 and to be conducted between the wind turbine manufacturer Siemens Wind Power AS and the Centre for Electric Technology (CET), Department of Electrical Engineering, Technical University of Denmark, targeting development, validation and documentation of Siemens Wind Power VS wind turbines and park controllers in the DIgSILENT PowerFactory simulation environment. The wind turbines utilize full-rating frequency converters which is the main technology of Siemens Wind Power. The project must benefit both participants with accessing each other’s know how on modelling and control of modern, Megawatt class wind turbines, frequency converters and large windfarms. The activity must strength the development and knowledge of the CET within the main research and education areas of wind power integration into power systems. The developed models and results of this project remain property of Siemens Wind Power.
