Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] Offshore wind power has the characteristics of high stability of sea wind resources, large power generation capacity, no occupation of scarce land resources and less environmental pollution. It is a new energy power generation technology with great conditions for large-scale development and commercial prospects.
[0003] Offshore wind farms use submarine cables to transmit power, and AC submarine cables generally have high capacitive charging power, which is more pronounced over long distances and with larger cross-sections. Therefore, considering the impact of submarine cable capacitive charging power, offshore wind farms differ from onshore wind farms in terms of reactive power characteristics, necessitating the use of reactive power compensation configurations for offshore wind farms. However, current reactive power compensation configurations for offshore wind farms fail to account for the impact of submarine cable capacitive charging power and the reactive power regulation capabilities of the wind turbines themselves. Consequently, reactive power compensation configurations are generally large in capacity and require high investment costs. Summary of the Invention

[0076] Example
[0077] Taking a 1000MW offshore wind farm as an example, the wind farm contains three main transformers with capacities of 400MVA, 400MVA, and 200MVA respectively. Every five 8MW wind turbines in the wind farm form a collector line, with a total of 25 collector lines. The transmission capacity of a single collector line is 40MW. The medium-voltage submarine cable model of the collector line is: HYJQF41-F48 / 66kV 3×300mm 2 The outgoing submarine cable uses 5 loops of HYJQF41-F 127 / 220kV 3×(1×500)mm 2 High-voltage submarine cable.
[0078] According to calculations, without considering the reactive power regulation capability of the wind turbine itself, the reactive power compensation capacity required by the offshore wind farm is Q = max {Q C ,Q L}=240Mvar.
[0079] Considering that half of the wind turbines in the wind farm have reactive power regulation capabilities, according to the wind turbine power characteristics, the wind turbine inductive and capacitive reactive power regulation range curves are drawn, as shown in Figure 2. Figure 1 As shown. Figure 1 It can be seen that when the wind turbine operates at rated active power and has the ability to adjust reactive power within the power factor range of ±0.98, its reactive power adjustment range is approximately 20% of the wind turbine's rated capacity. Therefore, considering the equal adjustment capabilities of the wind turbine's inductive and capacitive reactive power, the reactive power adjustment range is Q WL =Q WC =100MW.
[0080] In summary, considering the adjustable range of wind turbine reactive power, the inductive and capacitive reactive power shortage of offshore wind farm is corrected, and the reactive compensation configuration capacity of offshore wind farm is obtained as Q=max{ΔQ C ,ΔQ L}=140MW.
[0081] In this embodiment, the reactive power compensation configuration capacity of the offshore wind farm is optimized based on the influence of the capacitive charging power of the submarine cable. While meeting the reactive power voltage requirements of the offshore wind farm connected to the power system, the reactive power compensation configuration of the offshore wind farm can be reduced by about 100MW, saving about 8 million yuan in investment in the reactive power compensation configuration of the offshore wind farm.
