摘要

Wind turbine emulator that allows to reproduce in open loop the mechanical power curves of a wind turbine. The utility of the emulator is to be able to perform the tests of the control system of the turbine generator in a laboratory environment. The emulator is made by the series connection of a dc voltage source of variable value, a power resistance and a dc motor. By varying the dc voltage, mechanical power curves similar to those of the turbine are obtained. The most novel technical characteristic of the invention is the emulation of the curves of the turbine in open loop, and that the emulator has intrinsically a similar behavior, unlike the state of the art, where the emulation is carried out by means of a control system in closed loop.
