Adaptive Switching Control of Wind Turbine Generators for Necessary Frequency Response (2005.14562v1)

Abstract: This letter proposes a new control strategy for wind turbine generators to decide the necessity of switches between the normal operation and frequency support modes. The idea is to accurately predict an unsafe frequency response using a differential transformation method right after power imbalance is detected so as to adaptively activate a frequency support mode only when necessary. This control strategy can effectively avoid unnecessary switches with a conventional use of deadband but still ensure adequate frequency response.
