A DFIG power system 100 defines a generator power path 130 and a converter power path 132. The generator power path 130 has a DFIG 120 with a rotor 122 and a stator 124. The converter power path 132 has a power converter 162 with a rotor-side converter 166 coupled to a line-side converter 168 via a DC link 136. The power converter 162 has at least two power bridge circuits 144, 145, 146 connected in parallel. A method 300 of operating the DFIG power system 100 includes monitoring, via one or more sensors 181, 183, 185, at least one electrical condition thereof. The method 300 also includes comparing, via a control system 174, the electrical conditions to a predetermined threshold, the predetermined threshold being indicative of an occurrence of a transient overloading event. Further, the method 300 includes alternating between non-interleaving and interleaving intervals if the electrical conditions exceeds the predetermined threshold so as to reduce harmonics of the DFIG power system 100.

The present disclosure is directed to a protection system (102) for a wind turbine power system (100) connected to a power grid (82). The protection system (102) includes a main brake circuit (104) having at least one brake resistive element (116) and at least one brake switch element (120, 122), a storage element (118), and a controller (75). The brake resistive element is coupled to at least one of a DC link (68) of a power converter (65) of the wind turbine power system, windings of a rotor (80) of a generator (24), or windings of a stator (78) of the generator of the wind turbine power system via the brake switch element. The battery system (130) is coupled to the generator via a battery switch element. In addition, the controller is configured to disconnect the power converter and the generator from the power grid and connect at least one of the main brake circuit or the battery system to the generator in response to detecting an electromagnetic (EM) torque loss event so as to generate an EM torque.

A control method 300 for dynamically controlling active and reactive power capability of a wind farm includes obtaining 302 one or more real-time operating parameters of each of the wind turbines. The method 300 also includes obtaining 304 one or more system limits of each of the wind turbines. Further, the method 300 includes measuring 306 at least one real-time wind condition at each of the wind turbines. Moreover, the method 300 includes continuously calculating 308 an overall maximum active power capability and an overall maximum reactive power capability for each of the wind turbines as a function of the real-time operating parameters, the system limits, and/or the real-time wind condition. Further, the method 300 includes generating 310 a generator capability curve for each of the wind turbines using the overall maximum active and reactive power capabilities and communicating the generator capability curves to a farm-level controller of the wind farm that can use the curves to maximize the instantaneous power output of the wind farm.
