“…Otherwise, if the variations are small, the capacitors remains at a fixed value. The switching in the battery should not be too frequent to limit the transients due to these operations (Thiringer et al, 2004). In Spain, the Royal Decree 2818/1998 established that wind farms should operate with a power factor as close to unity as possible.…”

“…Artificial Intelligence techniques and advanced filtering have been used for forecasting. Power fluctuations of frequency around 8 Hz can eventually produce flicker in very weak networks (Thiringer et al, 2004;Amaris & Usaola, 1997). Both current and power can be measured directly, they can be statistically characterized and they are directly related to power quality.…”

“…In large-capacity WPGS, two generators are switched over depending on the wind speed. The SCIM has an inrush current of approximately six-times the rated current at the start-up condition, because it does not have an excitation source [5]. This inrush current causes a voltage sag in the power system.…”

AC-Chopper-Based Inrush Current Suppressor in a Wind Power Generation System with Squirrel-Cage Induction Machines

et al. 2018

This paper proposes the inrush current suppressor using an AC chopper in a large-capacity wind power generation system (WPGS) with two squirrel-cage induction machines (SCIMs), which are switched over depending on the wind speed. The input side of the AC chopper is connected to the source in parallel. The output side of the AC chopper is connected in series with the SCIM through matching transformers. In the proposed inrush current suppressor, the output voltage of the AC chopper is the same as the receiving-end voltage before connecting the SCIM. By gradually decreasing the output voltage of the AC chopper, the applied voltage of the SCIM is gradually increased without the inrush current. The basic principle of the proposed inrush current suppressor is discussed in detail. A computer simulation is implemented to confirm the validity and practicability of the proposed inrush current suppressor using a power system computer-aided design/electromagnetic transients including DC (PSCAD/EMTDC). Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed inrush current suppressor can suppress the inrush current.
