Concurrent Optimal Re/Active Power Control for Wind Farms Under Low-Voltage-Ride-Through Operation.

A novel concurrent control scheme of optimal re/active power regulation in a wind farm is proposed in this letter, of which the objective is to minimize the detrimental shortfall of active power during low-voltage-fault events. Distinguished from the existing works, the proposed control scheme incorporates an efficient optimization module into the wind turbine controllers. Specifically, it features the merit that the practical feasibility of tracking the resultant references can be ensured via considering multiple constraints in presence of complex wake interactions. Case studies on a permanent-magnet-synchronous-generator based wind farm built in a joint DIgSILENT-MATLAB platform are carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
