Abstract
For a wind power plant (WPP) the upper limit
for active power output is bounded by the instantaneous wind
conditions and therefore a WPP must curtail its power output
when system services with active power are delivered. Here,
a power oscillation damping controller (POD) for WPPs is
presented that utilizes the stored kinetic energy in the wind
turbine (WT) mechanical system as energy storage from which
damping power can be exchanged. This eliminates the need for
curtailed active power production. Results are presented using
modal analysis and induced torque coefficients (ITC) to depict the
torques induced on the synchronous generators from the POD.
These are supplemented with nonlinear time domain simulations
with and without an auxiliary POD for the WPP. The work is
based on a nonlinear, dynamic model of the 3.6 MW Siemens
Wind Power wind turbine.
