Abstract

This paper presents voltage transient analysis of a proposed 3MW permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind power generation system (WPGS) using a real time digital simulator (RTDS). The WPGS that is modeled with realtime digital simulator (RTDS) and RSCAD simulators are characterized for voltage transient analysis. Furthermore, a newly actual controller-hardware-in-the-loop simulation (CHILS) is employed to analyze voltage transient to the system. For validation, two typical voltage sag conditions are considered as three-phase-line to-ground and single-line-to-ground faults. Experimental results validate that the modeled system operates safely under transient grid conditions by pitch control as well as circuit breaker operation.
