Detailed Documentation

In this research, we developed a comprehensive MATLAB/Simulink model that successfully integrates six 100kW wind turbine units with the power grid. The model architecture implements key components including wind turbine aerodynamics, permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSG), back-to-back power converters with MPPT control, and grid synchronization techniques using phase-locked loops (PLL). The model demonstrates strong portability through modular subsystem design and parameterized blocks, making it suitable for microgrid system studies across different configurations. Our implementation features detailed power flow analysis, fault ride-through capability, and active/reactive power control algorithms. Through extensive simulation testing, we obtained valuable insights regarding system efficiency, stability under varying wind conditions, and performance optimization strategies. These findings are significant for future microgrid system design and implementation, contributing to better utilization of renewable energy sources like wind power for sustainable energy development. The model includes validation scenarios for grid code compliance and can be adapted for different turbine specifications through parameter modification.
