Wind speed simulation model in wind power systems using MATLAB/S-function implementation

Detailed Documentation

Wind power generation is a renewable energy technology that converts wind energy into electrical energy. In wind power systems, wind speed plays a critical role in turbine operation and power generation efficiency. To better understand the impact of wind speed on wind turbines, it is essential to develop wind speed simulation models. MATLAB/S-function serves as a fundamental tool for constructing such simulation models, enabling detailed analysis of wind speed effects on wind power systems. The implementation typically involves creating custom S-function blocks that can simulate various wind speed profiles, including constant wind, gust models, and turbulent wind patterns using mathematical formulations like Weibull distribution or Kaimal spectrum. Key functions include defining state equations, output calculations, and discrete/continuous system modeling to replicate real-world wind behavior with adjustable parameters for different operational scenarios.
