Abstract :
The letter reveals that when low-frequency dynamics of a wind turbine generator are reflected to the load side, the resulting electrical equivalent circuit is similar to a typical solar generator equivalent circuit. The finding allows drawing a parallel between the corresponding energy conversion processes, as well as applying advanced methods of analyzing and controlling photovoltaic generators to interfacing wind turbine generators.
