Simulation of a fixed pitch wind turbine powered induction generator in EMTP
Described are two models of a fixed pitch wind turbine drive train coupled to an induction generator compatible with the Electromagnetic Transients Program (EMTP). The models require wind speed or turbine torque changes. Model performance is studied on a 30 kW commercial arrangement.
