Optimal Operation of a Wind Driven System
This paper presents a number of controlling techniques that can used in extracting the wind energy from a wind prime mover. The extraction of wind energy bears in mind the target of matching the electric power needed by an electric generator with the maximum possible output power of a wind motor. Th...
