Requirements: View
You can use LabVIEW and the LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module to simulate a full wind turbine system, including the wind turbine, mechanical drive train, generator, power grid, and controller. The Control Design and Simulation Module provides a numerical simulation environment that allows you to test this system, which would otherwise be very expensive to test. You can use the Control Design and Simulation Module to analyze the interactions between hybrid mechanical-electrical systems. You also can improve the quality of existing models and explore other control strategies by simulating deep-bar induction generators and more complex drive-train models. Instructions
Complete the following steps to run the simulation of a wind turbine.
1. Download the attached wind_turbine_simulation.zip file.
2. Open the Wind Turbine Project.lvproj file.
3. In the Project Explorer window, double-click the Final Simulation.vi item to open the Final Simulation example VI.
4. Press the Run button to run the Final Simulation example VI.
5. Select Automatic from the Method drop-down menu and observe the changes on the Pictures, Power, and Turbine Parameters pages as the Wind Speed and Wind Direction change. You also can select Manual from the Method drop-down menu to modify the Wind Speed and Wind Direction manually.
