Definitions
- US 5,729,1 18 discloses a variable speed induction generator-motor with controllable excitation frequency, in which the slip frequency is kept constant during variations of the power grid frequency
- Fig 1 schematically shows a diagram of the generator speed limits as a function of the deviation in grid frequency ⁇ f in accordance with one preferred embodiment of the method, the deviation in grid grid frequency ⁇ f being defined to be the measured grid frequency minus the nominal grid frequency, and
- Fig 2 schematically shows a corresponding diagram of the generator speed limit as a function of the deviation in grid frequency ⁇ f in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention
- the aim of the present invention is to perform a dynamic correction or adjustment of the upper and lower limits for the generator speed in accordance with deviations in the grid frequency
- such dynamical correction of the maximum and minimum speed for the generator can be performed in different intervals
- the maximum and minimum speed for the generator is set to fixed values, as long as the deviation from the nominal frequency is less than ⁇ 1 %, corresponding to the interval 49 5 Hz to 50 5 Hz or 59 4 Hz to 60 6 Hz 1 respectively, for a 50 Hz and 60 Hz nominal grid frequency, respectively
- the purpose of this deadband is to avoid corrections as long as the frequency deviations are insignificant and only perform corrections when the frequency deviations are extreme
- the upper speed limit is furthermore fixedly limited to 1680 rpm in order to avoid overspeeding This can be seen as the horizontal part of the upper limit above approx 1 2 Hz deviation in grid frequency.
- this upper limit may be expanded below a deviation of approx approx -1.8 Hz to a generator speed of 1580 rpm This fixation of the upper limit at approx. 1580 rpm is introduced in order to prevent the generator torque from increasing significantly at a negative deviation in the grid frequency
- Fig. 1 indicates a constant percentage deviation from the synchronous speed calculated based on the deviating grid frequency
- the upper and lower speed limits for the generator may be as shown in Fig. 2, where the rotational speed of the generator is kept below the calculated synchronous speed minus 2.3% for frequency deviations between -3.6 Hz and -0 6 Hz and kept below synchronous speed -2.3% for deviations in grid frequency between
- the lower limit for the generator speed is, as also shown in Fig. 1 above, -16.7% of calculated synchronous speed for the intervals of grid frequency deviation between -6% and -1% and between +1% and +6%, and nominal synchronous speed minus 16 7% at grid frequency deviation between -1 % and + 1 %
- the stator of the generator can be connected to the power grid in two different configurations, star and delta configuration Different restrictions apply to both speed and power in these two configurations, and examples of this can be seen in Figs 1 and 2, where, as typically found, the maximum speed limit will be identical for star and delta configuration, respectively, whereas the minimum speed limit will be lower for delta configuration than for star configuration, as indicated.
