ABSTRACT: Modeling of a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG)-based wind energy conversion system is presented for the simulation of diverse transients. In order to perform multi-scale transients, the back-to-back voltage source converter (VSC) is modeled using three different forms including the detailed, switched and average models. The PMSG-based WECS is implemented in PSCAD/EMTDC. The simulation results show that the detailed and switched model of VSC give a detailed and accurate representation, while the average model provides an efficient simulation.
