  • Publication number: 20240048042
    Abstract: The invention relates to a voltage transformer for converting a primary-side alternating voltage at a first voltage level into a secondary-side alternating voltage at a second voltage level, the voltage transformer having a DC link in which a first direct voltage generated from the primary-side alternating voltage is converted into a second direct voltage by means of a DC-to-DC voltage converter, characterised in that an output circuit for providing a third direct voltage for the connection of at least one load is coupled to the DC link, in particular to the DC-to-DC voltage converter thereof.

  • Patent number: 11774994
    Abstract: Provided is a control module of a converter, in particular a power converter of a wind power installation, which is configured to control the converter in such a way that the converter emulates a behavior of a synchronous machine, comprising an, in particular internal, control loop which has an, in particular adjustable, virtual admittance by means of which the converter is controlled in order to emulate the behavior of the synchronous machine.

  • Patent number: 11705734
    Abstract: A wind farm, having a nominal power, for feeding electrical power into a supply network, comprising: wind power installations, a wind farm network and a stabilization unit connected to the wind farm network and arranged between the installations and the supply network. The stabilization unit increases a stability of the wind farm and comprises: an energy storage device which is set up to provide an electrical power, an intermediate circuit which is connected to the storage device and which is set up to conduct at least the electrical power provided by the storage device, an inverter connected to the intermediate circuit and set up to form at least the electrical power provided by the storage device, and a control unit set up to control at least the inverter such that the stabilization unit at the wind farm appears, statically as well as dynamically, like an electromechanical synchronous machine.

  • Patent number: 11646583
    Abstract: A wind farm for supplying electrical power into a supply grid. The farm includes wind power installations, a farm grid connecting the installations, and a power flow control device. The power flow control device is configured to connect the farm grid and the supply grid such that an electrical power generated by the installations can be supplied into the supply grid. The power flow control device has at least: a DC link configured to conduct at least the electrical power generated by the installations, an electrical energy store connected to the DC link, an inverter connected to the DC link and configured to inject at least the electrical power generated by the installations into the supply grid, and a controller configured to drive the inverter in such a way that the farm, at the supply grid, in the steady state appears to be dynamic like an electromechanical synchronous machine.

  • Patent number: 11566601
    Abstract: Provided is a control circuit of a converter, in particular a power converter of a wind power installation, configured to control the converter in such a way that the converter emulates a behavior of a synchronous machine. The control circuit includes a power module for calculating a power change depending on a detected power and a correction module for setting a power set point, in particular for the converter, depending on the calculated power change.
