Design of MATLAB/Simulink Modeling of Fixed-pitch Angle Wind Turbine Simulator

This paper presents the model of fixed-pitch angle wind turbine simulator. The purposed dynamic model consists of wind turbine profiles which attribute to the mechanical power and torque characteristics of wind turbine. The objective of this research is to develop and design the fixed-pitch angle wind turbine simulator. The analytical model has been derived representing the wind turbine simulator, to describe the simulation results using a MATLAB/Simulink. The system has been simulated to verify the effectiveness of the fixed-pitch angle wind turbine simulator at over rated rotational speed. The wind turbine simulator can propel an induction generator model. This implies the characteristics of the electrical power. The wind turbine simulator can display mechanical power and torque characteristics following to the wind velocity. The torque from the wind turbine simulator can be used to drive the induction generator to generate the active power fed into the load.
