Introduction
This report presents preliminary data sheets for the V117/V136/V150-4.0/4.2 MW turbine. Since the turbine is
a further development of the 3.45/3.6MW turbine, accredited power quality measurements according to IEC
61400-21 from V136-3.6 MW have been used as estimate for the per unit performance of the V117/V136/V150-
4.0/4.2 MW turbine. Based on experience, the per unit parameters remain relatively constant across rotor sizes
and power ratings. This approach therefore provides a most likely estimate of the parameters. It is, however,
not guaranteed that the final values will be better than the values stated in this preliminary data sheet.
The sections in this document have been numbered according to the draft version of IEC 61400-21-1 [1].

The active power control has been tested on a 3.6 MW nacelle. The time constants and accuracy of the reactive
power are only determined by the converter and the control system. This has the same per unit settings for
3.6 and 4.2 MW.

Overvoltage and undervoltage alarms are configured as a normal ramp down and therefore the turbine is not
disconnected until disconnection time plus ramp down time.

9 Transferability of results
This estimated power quality datasheet assesses the estimated performance of the wind turbine
V117/V136/V150-4.0/4.2 MW 50/60 Hz in terms of the power quality aspects. The assessment is based on
test results from field measurements of a V117-3.6 MW 50 Hz wind turbine and of a V136-3.6 MW 50 Hz. The
changes between the wind turbines are not expected to have significant influence in these analyses, so the
results are used to estimate the performance. More analytically:
Harmonic injection:
The small differences in the electrical circuit of the turbine models, to allow the operation at higher power, are
not expected to cause significant deviations related to the harmonic emission. In effect the changes made
should, in theory, slightly improve the current emissions at higher frequencies, although this effect cannot be
guaranteed and must be evaluated with field measurements. A change in the aerodynamics, like a bigger rotor,
does not affect the harmonics.
Control performance
The active power control and ramp rate has been tested on a 3.6 MW wind turbine. Since the power control is
mainly determined by the control systems, the per unit values can be reused for 4.0/4.2 MW.
The same reasoning can be applied to the frequency control and reactive power control of the wind turbines.
Dynamic performance
The dynamic performance is also dependent on the control software, so the under/over voltage ride-through,
and grid protections can be reused from 3.6 MW models.
