Abstract This paper presents the simulation modeling and analysis of variable wind speed turbine system(VWTS) using Psim program. In the simulation, using the Vestas V47 VWTS located in Hangwon wind farm in Jeju-Do as a model, wind model, blade model, pitch control model and grided connected generator are modeled. The VWTS is controlled by the optimal pitch angle for maximum output power under the rated wind speed and for the rated output power over the rated wind speed. To verify the effectiveness of proposed method, simulation results are compared with the actual data from the model system. According to the comparison of these results, this method shows excellent performance. So it is very useful for understanding and applications of wind power control system.
