Modeling Method for DFIG-Based Wind Farm in High-Efficiency Real-Time Electromagnetic Transient (EMT) Simulations
With the increasing integration of renewable energy into power systems, electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulation has become indispensable for accurate system analysis. However, the complexity of wind turbine (WT) modeling, characterized by a large number of electrical nodes, poses significant challenges and necessitates substantial real-time simulation hardware. Existing methods for reducing circuit complexity improve simulation efficiency but are each associated with inherent limitations. Aggregation methods sacrifice considerable internal station information, while existing decoupling techniques are constrained by specific requirements. This paper proposes a real-time simulation model for a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG)-based wind farm (WF) using latency decoupling and a multi-level nested fast and simultaneous solution (M-NFSS) approach, effectively reducing node count while preserving internal details. A WF test model is implemented in RTDS for validation. Results demonstrate highly accurate impedance characteristics and time-domain waveforms of the proposed model, utilizing only 33.3% of the hardware resources compared to the traditional detailed model.
