Abstract :
This paper presents the dynamic modeling of wind energy induction generator WEIG. Detailed models have been developed to simulate the dynamic behaviour of the system elements namely; the turbine, generator and drive train. The system transient during the starting period has been investigated, where it has been found that the shaft connecting the wind turbine and generator may be subjected to hazardous torsional torques. Various techniques have been considered to find an appropriate procedure to alleviate these hazardous torsional torques.
