Simulation of a wind farm performance under wind speed changes

Electrical systems endowed with variable generating units will dominate the electrical landscape in the near future. These types of generating units will bring new opportunities to utilities, companies and customers, but they will also bring new problems to electrical companies. As wind power generation is one of the most important renewable energy sources, because its production is environmentally clean, it is important to achieve proper locations for new wind farms. So, to evaluate their impact on the electrical network it is necessary to develop an accurate wind farm model for the network analysis program. This paper presents the model of a wind farm exclusively made up of double fed induction machines.
