Abstract

This review article presents an overview of the Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) device, its working principle, and its application for improving the stability of wind farms. The article also highlights the importance of STATCOMs in enhancing the power quality of wind farms by improving voltage stability, reducing power fluctuations, and mitigating grid faults. Due to continuously fluctuating wind speeds and faults, the active power, reactive power, and terminal voltage are susceptible to continuous change, which applies to terminal voltage as well. When a STATCOM is connected to the grid, the active power, reactive power, and terminal voltage are maintained at the same level during the connection. This also contributes to an increase in the system's transient stability, which is an important consideration. The review further describes the modeling and control of STATCOMs, including the selection of appropriate control strategies for specific wind farm applications. Finally, the article concludes with a summary of the future research directions for the STATCOM device and its potential for integration into the smart grid.

提高风电场稳定性的STATCOM装置综述

本文综述了静态同步补偿器(STATCOM)的工作原理及其在提高风电场稳定性方面的应用。这篇文章还强调了statcom通过提高电压稳定性、减少电力波动和减轻电网故障来提高风力发电场电力质量的重要性。由于风速和故障的持续波动，有功功率、无功功率和终端电压都容易发生连续变化，终端电压也是如此。STATCOM并网后，在并网过程中，其有功功率、无功功率和终端电压保持在同一水平。这也有助于增加系统的暂态稳定性，这是一个重要的考虑因素。该综述进一步描述了statcom的建模和控制，包括针对特定风电场应用选择适当的控制策略。最后，文章总结了STATCOM设备未来的研究方向及其融入智能电网的潜力。
