Abstract | ||||
The penetration of wind power in electrical power system is increased rapidly. Most conventional wind farms are based on fixed speed induction generators FSIG. So it is very necessary and important to study the transient stability ofthe wind farms with FSIC. This paper investigates the impacts of fault occurrence on the stability of wind farm interconnected grid. The behavior of the wind farm during different fault types such as single phase to ground fault, double phase to ground fault and three phase to ground fault is studied. Also, the impacts of reactive power compensator during steady state and fault state conditions are studied. A simulation model of wind farm based on FSIG interconnected grid and equipped with static synchronous compensator STATCOM are developed by MATLAB-SIMULINK toolbox. | ||||
