Abstract

With more penetration of wind energy from onshore and offshore wind farms, wind generation will thus be exerting more influences on the original power system. The main purpose of this paper is to study two commonly adopted offshore wind turbine types, namely the doubly-fed induction generator and the full converter wind turbine. These two types of wind turbines are to be set as the offshore wind farm generating machines to compare their performances in the system. Transient responses of the two kinds of wind turbines under three-phase fault are analyzed to verify their ride-through capabilities. Results show that, that the wind farm with the doubly-fed induction generator has a better performance than full converter wind turbine during and after fault, and full converter wind turbine is capable of providing more reactive power as compared to the doubly-fed induction generator.
