Abstract

This paper presents the harmonic analysis of offshore wind farm (OWF) models with full converters represented as harmonic sources and measurement data on the point of common coupling (PCC) during normal operation. The model describes a wind farm (WF) with full rated converters installed connected to a shore with a long HV cable. The way of propagation and effects of harmonics are presented for different study cases. Modeling strategies of harmonic sources for harmonic analysis are described and compared. Different results dependent on applied harmonic models are shown and discussed in this paper. Simulation results are compared with representative measurement data obtained from measurement campaign done in an OWF situated in United Kingdom. The problems and limitations related to present standards and practice will be discussed based on measurements from offshore wind farm.
