The simulation circuit of wind energy system is shown in figure 3.4. A 5kw wind turbine is connected to a generator. The output from the generator is converted to DC and then reduced to 48V using a closed loop controlled buck converter The stepped down output is connected to a load and simulated specifications of wind energy system are given in table 3.2.
