Open project "Wind_Turbine.prj" to set the path and load key values.

Please note:

1. Wind_Turbine_Demo_Script.html will walk you through most parts of the wind turbine demo.

2. Some configurations are invalid.
   Turbine Inputs, Blade Loads, Main Controller, and Pitch Controller must be compatible

   Valid combinations: Turbine Inputs Main Controller Blade Loads Pitch Controller Commands Direct Input Torque Inner Loop (all other) Wind Input (not Torque) PI on AoA

simscape-wind-turbine's Issues

Power curve jumps to negative while wind turbine is running

Hello,

I have obtained the wind speed and wind direction for my location and given it as input to the MATLAB model. Whenever the windspeed is above 5 m/s for some time, the wind turbine runs as intended. However, the power curve P(W) looks like this:

Why does the power curve jump into negative values while the wind turbine is running?

Possible error in blade bearing loads scope

Hi,
we found out a possible error in the blade scope section, we think that the oscilloscope's input signals of torque and force are reversed.
