Optimal Transient Control Scheme for Grid-Forming Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator-Based Wind Farms

In this paper, an optimal transient control (OTC) scheme is proposed to improve the transient stability of the grid-forming (GFM) wind farm (WF) based on the transient stability of the WTs. The converter’s current operating safety range is considered to quantify the maximum KES capabilities of the WTs. At the WF control level, the global transient voltage control problem is solved by optimizing the output reactive power of different WTs of the WF. At the WT control level, the transient stability of WT is improved by regulating the output power and weak magnetic current. The simulation results in MATLAB/Simulink show that the proposed control scheme can more efficiently improve the transient stability of WT by suppressing the DC bus voltage fluctuations and enhancing the voltage support capability of WT compared with the traditional control schemes.
