Abstract:
A variable speed wind turbine is provided. The variable speed wind turbine comprises a generator, a power converter for converting at least a portion of electrical power generated by the generator, the power converter comprising a generator-side converter, a grid-side converter and a DC (direct current) link therebetween, a power dissipating unit operatively coupled to the DC-link, and a controller. The controller is adapted to receive a request to reduce power output from the wind turbine, determine a feed forward power signal based on a reference generator power and a desired turbine power, and operate the power dissipating unit based on the feed forward power signal.
