Wind Turbine Model

Wind turbine model including blades, nacelle, pitch and yaw actuation, generator and control system.

Description

This file contains a wind turbine model. It includes a three-dimensional mechanical model of the tower, nacelle, and blades modeled in SimMechanics, hydraulic pitch actuators, electrical yaw actuators, a simple generator and electrical grid model. There are a number of supporting models included that show how to develop each of the systems separately and integrate them into the overall model. The level of fidelity for each subsystem can be varied as you work through the design.

To use this example, you will need to read the README.txt file. Run the script, “startup_Wind_Turbine.m” to get started.

Great Work!!
i am having problem when i run the Startup_Wind_Turbine.m file. it is unable to compile. When I run the .mdl file directly it open up the complete model but when i simulate it, it gives some error: Failed to find library 'Wind_Lib' referenced by 'Wind_Turbine/Blade Load'. This library must be on your MATLAB path.

But this error is soleved when I added path in MATLAB. Now when I run the simulation in simulink I get error:
"Expression WT_Params.Main_Controller.wind_speed_cut_in_lower' for initial value of data 'wind_speed_cut_in_lower' (#66) did not evaluate."

sir,I am Avinash kumar persuing B.Tech in electrical engg.
I want to run this project,but after a lot of effort I couldn't able to know how can i add its path in mat lab, how can i run this model & also how can i remove its error.
If possible then please send me its complete model file that i can run on my pc.
please send me on my email id
([e-mail])

Dear Sir,
I have a problem sending the brakes requirement from the word file. The error message is (Could not locate id "GIDa_28459038_8e2a_4012_b92b_873919de293f" in the model "Wind_Turbine")
Please send me on my email id ([e-mail])

Dear sir,
i am working on turbine control project using Lidar technology , and i downloaded this model to perform my control algorithm for individual pitch control on the turbine.
i have some questions which i hope to find answers for it:
1- when i run the model without adding the generator the model works good and when i add it errors occur in the following part
wind_turbine/nacelle/generator/full/asynchronus machine pu units/ electrical model/phasor/positive sequence model

and
wind_turbine/nacelle/generator/full/asynchronus machine pu units/ electrical model/phasor/positive sequence model/mux 3.

and the problems is in the dimensions

what should i do to solve this problem

2- is it possible to replace the controller for yaw motor and pitch angles with another controller which i am working at and also the generator used

hi Steve Miller

 i appreciate your "Wind Turbine Model"
and i have a problem when i start simulation of this model
its error massage says
1) failed to find library 'wind_lib' refranced by 'wind_turbine/blade load' this liberary must be in your MATLAB path
2)failed to find library 'wind_lib' 'wind_turbine/blade load/ lift and drag' this library must be in your MATLAB path

please send me by by including those library's email [e-mail]

[teddy mi]

pls say something

[Steve Miller]

If you are having trouble running the model, please remember to run startup_Wind_Turbine.m first. Many of the errors you are getting are because you are opening the model directly. Errors concerning "wind_lib" will be solved if you run startup_Wind_Turbine.m Read the README.txt file for more information. Enjoy, --Steve

why i can't open file in http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fx_files/25752/3/content/Wind_Turbine_Model/Wind_Turbine_Demo_Script.html ???
can u help me???

[Tiago]

Hi!
I'm having trouble running the application on a windows 7, 64 bits, PC.
The only file available is "Wind_Turbine_sfun.mexw32", and I am not sure if I have all the files required to compile the .mexw64 file. Could you send this file?
The simulink main file is crashing with the error "Unable to locate 'mexopts.bat', and therefore cannot determine which compiler to use for simulation builds. Use 'mex -setup' to select a supported compiler.". I am currently trying to install a compiler.
Thank you for your help.

[Tiago]

Hi again,
Gorget the previous problem, i have already solve it.

[Mohd Mohd]

Tiago:
hye..can u help me??
i have a problem too run this model..
can u send to me the model without error??hope u can sent to [e-mail]

[Lukasz]

excellent work!!!

[Ahmed Bastawy]

While running the startup_wind_turbine.m, it make an error while generating the model because of the Compiler.. how can I solve it?
