Error Evaluation for Models of Real Time Wind Turbine Simulators

摘要

This paper deals with errors inherent in modelling wind turbine simulators. Firstly, different wind turbine simulators are categorised. The work concerns simulators having a real-time soft simulator and an electromechanical tracking system, using any type of servomotor 1~(5-17). Having presented the wind turbine linearised models, with respect to types of servomotor control (in speed or in torque), an analysis is made of simulator mathematical models and simulation performance evaluation, according to the dynamical behaviour of the electromechanical tracking systems. Next, the simulator performances calculation is presented, followed by a simulation error analysis for some particular cases, in order to highlight the differences between the speed and torque control structures. Finally, a servomotor choice principle is established, illustrated by numerical results obtained with the servomotor of a real time wind turbine simulator.
