Resumen

Operation of power systems is supported by grid codes, which are sets of requirements to comply. One of the key aspects of these grid codes related to wind farms are the ridetrough requirements that impose significant technical issues to the turbine manufacturers which in turn needs precise computermodels of their wind turbines to study their fulfillment. In this paper two precise and complete models of wind turbines has been implemented in two transient analysis simulators and their results are presented. They take into account the real electrical, mechanical and electronic parameters and the control of the power converter and the active crowbar and with the objective of been used in the required certification process according to the Spanish grid code.
