Permanent Magnet Synchronous Wind Turbine Generators (PMSG) hold a significant position in modern wind power systems due to their advantages of high efficiency, high power density, and maintenance-free operation. Their core characteristic lies in using permanent magnets to replace traditional electrical excitation, which reduces excitation losses and simplifies rotor structure complexity. In code implementation, this typically involves modeling permanent magnet flux linkage as a constant parameter in the generator's mathematical equations.
For dynamic modeling, the two-mass model is commonly used to describe the mechanical characteristics of the drive train. This model divides the drive system into wind turbine blades (low-speed mass block) and generator rotor (high-speed mass block), coupled through a flexible shaft. Such division can more accurately reflect torsional vibration phenomena caused by wind speed fluctuations or grid disturbances during actual operation, avoiding the limitations of single-mass models that neglect drive train flexibility. From a programming perspective, this requires implementing differential equations for both mass blocks with appropriate stiffness and damping coefficients.
Wind speed variation is a key external factor affecting wind turbine dynamic behavior. Random wind speed is converted into mechanical torque through the aerodynamic characteristics of the blades, subsequently affecting the balance between generator electromagnetic torque and rotational speed. During modeling, it's essential to consider turbulent components and step changes in wind speed to simulate dynamic responses in real environments. This can be implemented using wind speed models that incorporate Weibull distributions or turbulence spectrum algorithms.
Regarding control strategies, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is typically employed to optimize wind energy capture, while vector control enables decoupled regulation of the machine-side converter. On the grid side, it's necessary to ensure output power meets grid connection requirements. The application of the two-mass model allows control algorithms to more effectively suppress drive train oscillations, enhancing system stability. Implementation-wise, this involves designing PI controllers for dq-axis currents and developing power conversion control logic with proper filtering techniques.
