Real-Time Estimation Methods for the Frequency Support Function Based on a Virtual Wind Turbine by Bo-Hyun Woo, Ye-Chan Kim, Seung-Ho Song

“…As a result, wind turbines are now required to provide frequency support functions. To enable accurate analysis of the operational characteristics of wind turbines equipped with such control functions, this study proposes a virtual wind turbine model that estimates the operating point of a wind turbine in real-time under the assumption that frequency support functions are not performed. …”
