    Abstract

    This paper presents the implementation of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) generic Type 1A wind turbine generator (WTG) model in Power Factory (PF) and the validation of the implemented model against field measurements. The IEC generic Type 1A WTG model structure is briefly described. The details are explained regarding how the two mass mechanical model is implemented when the generator mass is included in the PF built-in generator model. In order to verify the IEC generic Type 1A WTG model, the model to field measurement validation method was employed. The model to field measurement validation of the implemented model was carried out by using the “play-back” approach and the measurement data from Siemens Wind Power. The results of the model to field measurement validation show that there is a good match between the simulation results and the measurements. The errors between the simulation results and measurements were calculated according to the voltage dip windows and the index definition specified in the IEC 61400-27-1 committee draft.
