Control of generator power
The generator power can be controlled by adjusting torque or speed:
where
P
generator power (W)
T
generator torque (N·m)
angular speed of the generator (rad/s)
n
rotor mechanical speed (1/min rpm).
In normal operation, the converter controls the generator torque. However, either a torque
or an active power reference to the converter is supported. The overriding wind turbine
controller (WTC) gives a torque reference (or an active power reference) to the converter
that generates a specific torque on the generator shaft. The overriding wind turbine
controller defines the needed torque/power reference as a function of wind speed and
turbine characteristics. A typical wind turbine power vs. speed curve is presented below. It
illustrates the operational speed range of the turbine between the cut-in and cut-out
speeds. Cut-in speed is the minimum wind speed at which power generation is
reasonable. Cut-out speed is the maximum operating speed that the wind turbine system
can tolerate. In the example below, the generator is for 1700 rpm and 2400 kW.
