4 FAQs about Wind turbine model power generation

Can a wind turbine model estimate total power generation?

The model can estimate the total power generation of wind turbines for given wind speeds, wind directions, and yaw angles. A case study has been conducted to introduce the modelling process. The experimental data of five wind turbines from an operating wind farm have been used to train and evaluate the model.

What is a wind turbine model?

The wind turbine model, consisting of the aerodynamic, drive train and electrical generator model is described next. These models are proposed by [Lubosny, 2003], [Martins et al, 2007] and [Lei et al, 2006]. As pointed out in Chapter 2, the wind turbine blades extract the kinetic energy in the wind and transform it into mechanical energy.

What is a wind turbine dynamic model?

While there are many wind turbine dynamic models available in the literature, the focus is largely on modeling variable-speed wind turbines. These models often oversimplify the mechanical drive train and aerodynamics, since the aim is to evaluate power and rotor speed control mechanisms.

Why do we need a model for wind energy conversion?

Modeling is a basic tool for analysis, such as optimization, project, design and control. Wind energy conversion systems are very different in nature from conventional generators, and therefore dynamic studies must be addressed in order to integrate wind power into the power system.
