Simulation and implementation of wind turbine based on switched reluctance motor drive

Abstract

This paper firstly describes the research background of the wind turbine imitation system, indicating the needs for the wind turbine imitation in laboratories. The current development status and the significance of the wind turbine imitation based on the switched reluctance (SR) motor are introduced. Then the model of the wind turbine and SR motor is expounded, from which the control theory and methods of the imitation system are derived. The control model got simplified and the corresponding compensation is added considering the actual operating environment. Finally, an experimental platform is built. Experimental results are consistent with the designed theoretical results and met the system design requirements.
