High-Fidelity Modeling of a Type-5 Wind Turbine Gearbox
Type-5 wind turbines are characterized by their use of a hydraulic torque converter and permanent synchronous generator. This combination promotes steady and grid-ready energy without the use of a power converter. Thus, researchers were prompted to study the potential impact on grid reliability, stability, and resilience using a Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) model of the type-5 turbine, including a high-fidelity model of its gear box.
