Abstrakt: Stochastic nature of the wind speed is the main reason that leads to variability of output power of wind farm. Thus high penetration of the wind farm will cause power fluctuations and voltage variations in the grid system. Due to these factors, a control method based on Voltage Source Converter has been implemented to control power flow in the grid connected wind turbine to eliminate the fluctuation of power in the network. This paper presents and focused on the designing and implementation of linear dynamic model of current-controlled Voltage Source Converter (VSC). Mathematical equations representing the model are obtained from the dynamic analysis of VSC circuit. The effectiveness of the controller is investigated by comparing between with and without control system as well as during disturbances. Results show that the current-controlled Voltage Source Converter has a potential to control independently real and reactive power of the grid system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
