Simulation model to evaluate the performance of windmill systems

Conference · · ASAE Publ.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6388284

This paper presents a simulation model of a wind power generation system. The system described is used to provide power to an apple-cooling storage facility which has both electric and thermal storage facilities. Different windmill, apple storage, and system control configurations are simulated in order to determine the performance for this particular wind power application. The use of this model and methodology for the design of new systems and optimization of existing systems is also discussed.
