Abstract
A wind farm typically consists of a large number of wind turbines with
relatively small size generators. In order to reduce computation time
and complexity in power system stability studies, it is therefore
desirable to aggregate wind turbines in the wind farm into a reduced
number of equivalent units. The aggregation should be made without
missing important properties or behaviors of wind power generation
systems for the associated studies. Models of single and aggregated wind
turbines are presented in the paper. The importance of induction
generator and mechanical drive train models of wind turbines is
examined. Simulation results of the models are then compared with field
measurement data.
