Turbine Control Concepts Stall Control:


Passive Stall: Power of the wind turbine is limited by the aerodynamic characteristics of the turbine. Active stall: Power of the wind turbine is limited additionally by decreasing the pitch angle (increasing the inflow angle).

Pitch Control:
Power of the wind turbine is limited by increasing the pitch angle (decreasing the inflow angle)

Turbine Control Concepts

Stall Control:
Cost effective Fast limitation of active power Fixed speed operation possible

Pitch Control:
Accurate power control possible Variable speed operation required

Operation of Fix Speed Wind Turbine (passive stall)

Start up (with open breaker) if wind speed > cut-in wind speed Close breaker Operation at constant blade angle over the whole wind speed range In case of large wind speeds: Power limited by aerodynamic profile.

Operation of Variable Speed Wind-Turbines

Start up (with open breaker) if wind speed > cut-in wind speed Close breaker Below rated wind-speed
Maximum power coefficient (Max. Power Tracking) Evt: Speed Limitation

Above rated wind-speed:


P=Prated (Limited by power electronics converter) Pitching

Advantages of variable speed operation:


Lower cut-in wind speeds Higher efficiency, especially at low wind speeds Lower power variations (compared to fixed speed turbines)

Disadvantage: More expensive!

Induction Generator with Variable Rotor Resistance - Summary

Simple concept for variable speed operation. Reactive power compensation required. No reactive power control capability. Additional devices required:
TSCs (Thyristor switched capacitors) STATCOMs

Limited LVRT capability. Dynamic voltage collapse problems have to be mitigated by:
Fast increase of rotor resistance during faults Additional reactive power compensation devices (typically TSCs)
