Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration of a wind power generator of the present embodiment. The wind power generator 1, as shown in Fig. 1, has a strut 2, a nacelle 3 disposed at the upper end of the strut 2, and a rotor disposed in the nacelle 3® and rotatable about a slightly horizontal axis Head 4. Three windmill blades 5 are radially mounted around the axis of rotation of the rotor head 4'. Thereby, the force of the wind that hits the windmill blade 5 from the direction of the rotation axis of the rotor head 4 is converted into the power that causes the rotor head 4 to rotate around the rotation axis; • the power is received in the nacelle The generator in 3 is converted into electrical energy. Further, in the nacelle 3, a wind speed and direction meter (not shown) is provided. Wind speed Wind direction meter measures wind speed and wind direction. The nacelle 3 corresponds to the wind speed and the wind direction measured by the wind speed and direction meter. ® Fig. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the configuration of the generator 6 and its surroundings. In the present embodiment, the generator (induction motor) 6 is constructed such that the electric power generated by the generator 6 can be derived from the stator winding power system 13 of the stator winding and the rotor winding. Specifically, the generator 6 is connected to the power system 13 by a winding of the stator, and the rotor winding is connected to the power system 13 via an AC-DC-AC converter 17. In (: - 〇 0: - 八 (: converter 17, which is composed of converter 14, 〇 (: bus bar 15 and inverter 16 in advance, converts the AC power received from the rotor winding) The AC power is converted to the frequency of the power system 13. The converter 9- 1361860 14 converts the AC power generated in the rotor winding into DC power, and outputs the DC power to the DC busbar 15. The inverter 1 6. The DC power received from the DC busbar 15 is converted into AC power of the same frequency as the power system 13, and the AC power is output. The AC-DC-AC converter 17 also has the slave power system 13. The received AC power is converted into an AC power suitable for the frequency of the rotor winding, and the state of operation of the wind power generator 1 is also used to excite the rotor winding. In this case, the inverter 16 is an AC power source. The DC power is converted into DC power, and the DC power is output to the DC bus 15. The converter 14 converts the DC power received from the DC bus 15 into AC power suitable for the frequency of the rotor winding, and the AC is exchanged. Power is supplied to the generator 5 Further, a rotor breaking circuit 27 for overcurrent protection of the converter 14 is connected to the rotor winding. The sudden breaking circuit 27 is a current flowing through the rotor winding or the voltage of the DC busbar 15 exceeds a predetermined value. In the case of the threshold 値, the rotor winding is short-circuited by the group resistance. Thereby, the current of the rotor winding is attenuated, and the overcurrent does not flow to the converter 14. Moreover, the group is directly short-circuited without the group resistance. It is also possible to provide a voltage/current sensor (not shown) for measuring the output voltage V of the generator 5 and the output current I in connection with the power line connecting the generator 5 to the power system 13. The measurement of the current sensor is given to the power control unit 21.

Specifically, the power control unit 21 calculates the effective power P and the reactive power Q from the output voltage V and the output current I measured by the voltage/current sensor. Further, the power control unit 21 generates a PWM signal in which the difference between the effective power P and the effective power command P* and the difference between the invalid power Q and the invalid power command Q* is regarded as zero, and the generated PWM signal is generated.

Thereby, the effective power P and the reactive power Q 〇 power control unit 2 1 monitor the generator rotor current and the DC connection voltage in advance, and when these 値 exceed the preset current threshold 电压 and voltage threshold ,, the emergency circuit breaker 27 is caused. At the same time as the actuation, the switching of the converter 14 and the inverter 16 is switched to OFF. This control is generally controlled. In this way, the action of the system voltage is not to cause the sudden circuit breaker 27 or the like to operate, and the control content is switched by the behavior of the generator rotor current and the DC link voltage, and it is not necessary to detect the system voltage drop. Add new features or set new benchmarks. The blade control unit 22 controls the inclination angle /3 of the windmill blade 5 in response to the tilt command /3*. Specifically, the blade control unit 22 controls the inclination angle of the wind turbine blade 5/3 so as to be inclined. Next, a control method of the wind power generator relating to the present embodiment in which the system voltage has dropped will be described with reference to Fig. 3 . First, if an accident occurs in the system side, and the system voltage drops, the operation of the sudden breaking circuit 27 is stopped, and the inclination angle of the wind turbine blade is controlled to return to the normal mode (step SA6). That is, the blade control unit 22' controls the inclination angle of the windmill blade so as to match the target inclination angle determined based on at least one of the wind speed, the rotational speed of the generator 6, and the required output. - In the case of the wind power generator of the present embodiment and the control method thereof, during the stop of the converter 14 and the inverter 16, because the speed of the generator is synchronized to the rotational speed By controlling the tilt angle of the windmill blades, the system voltage resets to allow the converter 14 and the inverter 6 to start driving the generator 6 to slide zero or - approximately zero. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the transient occurrence of the transition in the recovery of the system voltage, so that the influence on the machine due to the increase in torque can be avoided. In particular, it is possible to avoid the influence of the gear of the step-up gear due to the rise in torque. In the above embodiment, the operation of the converter 14 and the inverter 16 is stopped, and when the sudden breaking circuit 27 is activated, the inclination angle control of the windmill blade is switched, but instead of these For example, whether or not the operation of the converter 14 and the inverter 16 is stopped, or when the rapid circuit breaker 27 is activated, the return speed of the generator 6 is set to be synchronous return speed or synchronous return speed or higher. It is also possible to control the tilt angle of the windmill fins. Further, it is also possible to make the condition "the operation of the sudden breaking circuit" different from the condition for stopping the operation of the converter 14 and the inverter 16. -13- 1361860 [Brief Description of the Drawings] Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration of a wind power generating apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.
