  • Patent number: 11899050
    Abstract: A method for detecting low-frequency oscillations, in particular subsynchronous resonances, in a grid is provided. The method includes recording a series of measurements, having measurement points, of a grid variable over a measurement time period, for performing a frequency analysis and multiplying the series a time-dependent sinusoidal test function for the same measurement time period. The test function is characterized by a test frequency and a test angle as phase angle. The series for each measurement point is multiplied by the test function in order to obtain a test product for each measurement point. The method includes adding the test products taking into consideration the mathematical sign thereof to give a product sum, and evaluating, depending on the product sum, whether the series of measurements has a low-frequency oscillation having a frequency in the region of the test frequency and a phase angle in the region of the test angle.

  • Patent number: 11898539
    Abstract: Provided is a method for controlling a wind power system, that is to say a wind power installation or a wind farm comprising a plurality of installations, for feeding electrical power from wind into an electrical supply grid, and for damping low-frequency oscillations, in particular subsynchronous resonances, in the grid, wherein the grid has a line voltage with a nominal line frequency, wherein a damping control with a closed control circuit is used for damping the low-frequency oscillations, and the damping control for damping the low-frequency oscillations controls a feed-in of electrical power into the grid using a wind system control, the damping control is designed for a controlled system comprising the grid, the wind power system, and the wind system control, or parts thereof, wherein the damping control is designed such that it prevents and/or damps weakly damped modes in the closed control circuit.
