Abstract :
In this report In this report, the speed control of a modern pitch-regulated wind turbine has been investigated. The control structure operates without any knowledge of the wind speed or shaft torque, instead these quantities are estimated from the rotor speed and electric power. A novel approach for development of FPGA-based wind turbine control system used in isolated network in MATLAB/Simulink environments was proposed. The software tools in Matlab/Simulink environments, related design procedure and system architecture were presented.
