Info ID

Enter a unique ID with up to 25 alphanumeric characters.

ETAP automatically assigns a unique ID to each WTG. The assigned IDs consist of the default WTG ID plus an integer, starting with the number one and increasing as the number of WTGs increase. The default WTG ID can be changed from the Defaults Menu in the menu bar or from the Project View.

Bus

This is the ID of the connecting bus for the WTG. If the terminal is not connected to any bus, a blank entry will be shown for the bus ID. To connect or reconnect an induction machine to a bus, select a bus from the list box. The one-line diagram will be updated to show the new connection after you Note: you can only connect to buses that reside in the same view where the WTG click on OK. Note: resides, i.e., you cannot connect to a bus that resides in the Dumpster or in another composite network.

If a WTG is connected to a bus through a number of protective devices, reconnection of the wind turbine to a new bus in this editor will reconnect the last existing protective device to the new bus, as shown below where WTG is reconnected from Bus10 to Bus4.

ETAP displays the nominal kV of the bus next to the bus ID for your convenience. In/Out of Service

The operating condition of a WTG can be selected by clicking on the buttons for either the In Service or Out of Service options. The properties of an Out of Service machine can be edited like an In Service machine; however, an Out of Service machine will not be included in any system studies. When the continuity check is activated, an Out of Service machine automatically becomes grayed out in the one-line diagram.

Note: the In/Out of Service option is an engineering property, which is independent of the configuration status. Therefore, you can set a branch to be In Service for the Base Data and Out of Service in Revision Data. Equipment FDR Tag #

This field provides a convenient way to track data entry. Select one of the data types (such as Estimate, Typical, Vendor, Final, etc.) from the drop-down list. As the data is updated, this field can be changed to reflect the source of the latest data. There are a total of ten load types. To change the data type names, navigate to the Project Menu, point to Settings and select Data Type. Priority

Select the load priority of this machine from the drop-down list. This field can be used for load priority, operating priority, load-shedding priority, etc. Ten different priorities are allowed. To change priority names, from the Project Menu, point to Settings and select Load Priority. Generator Type

Select the generator type for this WTG from the drop-down list. ETAP currently models Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) connected to a wind driven rotor for analysis purposes. Configuration

In ETAP, the operation mode of the WTG is dependent on the configuration. This provides the flexibility of using multiple configurations to take into account different modes of operation. For information about creating new configurations, see the Status Configuration Section in t he Overview Chapter.

Select the operating status of the WTG for the selected configuration status from the list box. Operation Mode

The generator mode of operation and its ratings are displayed on the top of t he editor. Mvar Control

Using this option you can specify the amount of fixed MW and Mvar generation in the Rating page of the Wind Turbine Generator Editor. Connection Quantity

Enter the quantity (number) of similar WTGs in the electrical network. The maximum number is 999 and the default is 1.

On this page, you can specify the rating of the WTG, its Mvar Limits, the average wind speed, its operating values, and the WTG categories.

Ratings MW/kW

You can toggle between these two options by clicking on the MW/kW button. Enter the rated real power of the WTG in MW or kW. kV

Enter the rated voltage of the WTG in kV. This entry is used by ETAP to convert the ohmic values of the circuit elements to per unit values for calculations. This value is also used to convert the final WTG voltage to the actual values used for output reports. % PF

Enter the rated power factor of the WTG as a percentage. % Eff

This is the efficiency of the machine, in percent, at 100%, 75%, and 50% loading. Efficiency cannot

Page 6 of 24

exceed 100%. The efficiency at 100% loading is the rated efficiency and is used for calculating the rated values, i.e., when you change the efficiency at 100% loading, the machine full load current is recalculated. All three values of the efficiencies are used for determining the machine efficiency under different percent loading, i.e., when you change the value of any one of the efficiencies, the operating load and feeder losses for all loading categories are recalculated. Poles

Enter the number of poles for the synchronous generator. As the number of poles is changed, the synchronous speed of the machine is recalculated and displayed in RPM (revolutions per minute).

RPM = 120 * Freq./Poles RPM

ETAP displays the rated RPM (synchronous speed) of the WTG based on the system frequency and the number of poles entered (Ws=120 freq/pole). MVA

ETAP displays the rated power of the synchronous generator in MVA.

% of Bus kVnom ETAP displays the percentage of nominal bus kV. FLA

This is the rated full load current of the machine calculated and displayed in amperes. This is the current the WTG will pull from the system when it is fully loaded (that is, when the system is operating at the rated HP (or kW), rated kV, and rated frequency). When you modify FLA, the WTG efficiency at 100% loading is recalculated. ETAP limits the entry of FLA so that the efficiency at 100% loading cannot exceed 100% or be below 10%.

Mvar Limits

Click on one of the two buttons to specify if the Mvar limits are user-defined or set by the Controller. Wind Speed

This field displays the average wind speed in the Avg Wind Speed field in meters per second (m/s)

Generation Categories

This group is used to assign the various generation settings to each of the ten generation categories for this WTG. Each WTG can be set to have a different operating generation level for each generation category. Depending on the operation mode, some of the values are editable as follows:
