  1. 1. Energy Evaluation for DC/DC Converters in DC-Based Wind Farms

    Author : Lena Max; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; DC DC converter; loss evaluation; measurements; hard switching converters; wind energy; resonant converters; snubber design;

    Abstract : In this thesis the suitability of three topologies for DC/DC converters in a DC wind farm grid is investigated from an energy efficiency and energy production cost point of view. The three selected topologies are the fullbridge converter, the single active bridge converter and the series parallel resonant converter. READ MORE

  2. 2. Grid reinforcing wind generation

    Author : Nayeem Ullah; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; transient stability; variable speed wind turbine; long term voltage stability; short term voltage stability; frequency converter;

    Abstract : In this thesis, effects of some grid assisting possibilities that wind turbines could be equipped with, are investigated. The background is that concerns regarding the stability of the already existing power system in the presence of large wind farms have been risen. READ MORE

  3. 3. Configuration study of large wind parks

    Author : Stefan Lundberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; production cost; PCC; power quality; offshore; HVDC; wind parks; DC DC converters; control; losses; configurations; flicker; energy capture;

    Abstract : In this thesis, layouts of various large-scale wind parks, using both AC as well as DC, are investigated. Loss modelling of the wind park components as well as calculations of the energy capture of the turbines using various electrical systems are performed, and the energy production cost of the various park configurations is determined.

  4. 4. Modeling of Wind Turbines for Power System Studies

    Author : Tomas Petru; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flicker; fault response; power quality; wind turbine; power system stability; measurements; prediction; verification; grid simulation; modeling;

    Abstract : The power quality impact of wind turbines on the electric grid and the response of the wind turbines to faults in the electric grid are investigated in this thesis. A detailed model of a stall-regulated, fixed-speed wind turbine system capable of predicting the flicker impact on the connected grid is presented and compared with field measurements. READ MORE

  5. 5. Wind Turbine Characterization by Voltage Source Converter Based Test Equipment

    Author : Nicolas Espinoza; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Grid Integration; Frequency Scan; Discrete Control; Wind Power; Grid Emulation; Voltage Source Converter VSC ; Grid Code; Low Voltage Ride Through LVRT ;

    Abstract : In countries where wind power has become a relevant part of the total generated electrical power, transmission system operators (TSOs) have included in their Grid Codes specific technical requirements for interconnection of wind power plants. Some Grid Codes demand specific testing procedures in order to verify the fulfilment for their requirements. READ MORE
