Turbine model and design

For this purpose and to increase the degree of compatibility of wind turbine models with large scale optimization approaches such as those based on Genetic Algorithms, a wind energy conversion system having an horizontal blades axis propeller, an axial generator with permanent magnets recharging a battery energy accumulator through a diode rectifier is modeled by simplified method reducing simulation time.

Indeed, a model of the three phase’s diode rectifier making the simulation time considerably reduced compared to the existing model in the Simulink library is developed. This model is validated by comparison with the model using the classic Simulink library. Another objective of this study is the optimization of the recovered energy.
