Abstract

In this paper, a fixed pitch wind turbine equipped with a squirrel cage induction generator is modelled. A detailed model of the static starter is presented. The reactive compensation is achieved by means of three shunt-connected capacitor banks.

In order to be able to make the simulations, also a wind model has been developed. Several wind functions and experimental wind data are allowed by the model.

The results obtained by means of simulation have been contrasted with real results for the validation of the model.
