Hardware-in-the-loop simulation of a wind energy conversion system using energetic macroscopic representation

Abstract

A hardware-in-the-loop simulation of a wind energy conversion system is developed using the graphical tool energetic macroscopic representation. A 1.5 kW DC machine is controlled to impose a 900 kW wind turbine behavior on the induction generator shaft by using adaptation coefficients. Experimental results are provided for a medium wind velocity.
