Study on a 3kW Small Wind Turbine Generator with Variable Pitch LQG Control System

A prototype 3 kW wind turbine generator of 4 m in diameter has been designed and examined under real wind conditions. Two control methods have been applied: a variable blade pitch angle, and regulation of the generator field current. To improve the control program over a higher wind speed range, a L...
