“…Subsequently, the responses of the four signals previously mentioned, as well as the field data, went through a filter with a cut-off frequency of 15 Hz, according to IEC 61400-27-1. Despite the validation method not being fully developed, as it will be in IEC 61400-27-2, it has already been used in certain works, such as [12], [31], [32]. The validation method was applied between the IEC-Field and WECC-Field pairs, instead of comparing the responses of both generic models.…”

“…The main drawback is the need for a converter sized to the WT rated power, which is more expensive than the commonly used doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) configuration, composed of a converter rated to 25-30% of the WT rated power. In fact, the validation of a generic DFIG model was performed by the authors in [12]. Once implemented, both Type 4 models are tested in 10 different cases: 5 three-phase voltage dips when the WT is injecting its nominal power, and then 5 three-phase voltage dips with the same voltage parameters, but with the WT injecting 10-20% of its nominal power.…”

The generic wind turbine models developed in recent years by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and the Western Electricity Coordinated Council (WECC) are intended to meet the needs of public, standard, and relatively simple (small number of parameters and computational requirements) wind turbine and wind farm models used to conduct transient stability analysis. Moreover, the full-scale converter (FSC) wind turbine technology referred to as Type 4 by IEC and WECC, is increasingly used in current power systems due to its control benefits. Hence, the development of this generic model has become a priority.This study presents the validation of two generic Type 4 wind turbine models, which have been developed in accordance with the IEC and WECC guidelines, respectively. Field data collected from a real wind turbine located in a Spanish wind farm was used to validate both generic Type 4 wind turbine models following the IEC validation guidelines. Ten different test cases are considered, varying not only the depth and duration of the faults but also the load of the wind turbine. The parameters of the models were kept constant for all the simulation cases, aiming to evaluate the accuracy of the models when facing different voltage dips.

“…A generic type 4B model was validated against one voltage dip in [22], where the post-fault power oscillations were clearly observed. Generic type 3B and type 4A models, both from the same vendor, were validated in [5,8,12] based on the field results obtained from several test cases. It should be noted that the authors of the present work collaborated in most of the previously cited contributions, as well as being members of Working Group 27 of the IEC Technical Committee 88 in charge of the development of IEC 61400-27.…”

The participation of wind power in the energy mix of current power systems is progressively increasing, with variable-speed wind turbines being the leading technology in recent years. In this line, dynamic models of wind turbines able to emulate their response against grid disturbances, such as voltage dips, are required. To address this issue, the International Electronic Commission (IEC) 61400-27-1, published in 2015, defined four generic models of wind turbines for transient stability analysis. To achieve a widespread use of these generic wind turbine models, validations with field data are required. This paper performs the validation of three generic IEC 61400-27-1 variable-speed wind turbine model topologies (type 3A, type 3B and type 4A). The validation is implemented by comparing simulation results with voltage dip measurements performed on six different commercial wind turbines based on field campaigns conducted by three wind turbine manufacturers. Both IEC validation approaches, the play-back and the full system simulation, were implemented. The results show that the generic full-scale converter topology is accurately adjusted to the different real wind turbines and, hence, manufacturers are encouraged to the develop generic IEC models.

“…Therefore, the implementation and dynamic simulation of these WT models [11] will allow TSOs and DSOs to properly plan network operation and secure electricity supply. To fully achieve this objective and guarantee their effective operation, generic WT simulation models must be validated against field measurements of actual WTs [12]. Thus, it is necessary to compare and analyze their responses under the most critical conditions, i.e., under voltage dips [13].…”

Forecasts for 2023 position wind energy as the third-largest renewable energy source in the world. This rapid growth brings with it the need to conduct transient stability studies to plan network operation activities and analyze the integration of wind power into the grid, where generic wind turbine models have emerged as the optimal solution. In this study, the generic Type 3 wind turbine model developed by Standard IEC 61400-27-1 was submitted to two voltage dips and implemented in two simulation tools: MATLAB/Simulink and DIgSILENT-PowerFactory. Since the Standard states that the responses of the models are independent of the software used, the active and reactive power results of both responses were compared following the IEC validation guidelines, finding, nevertheless, slight differences dependent on the specific features of each simulation software. The behavior of the generic models was assessed, and their responses were also compared with field measurements of an actual wind turbine in operation. Validation errors calculated were comprehensively analyzed, and the differences in the implementation processes of both software tools are highlighted. The outcomes obtained help to further establish the limitations of the generic wind turbine models, thus achieving a more widespread use of Standard IEC 61400-27-1.
