Abstract
Small-scale motor-generator sets have been used in laboratories for verification of real large wind turbines whose rated power are more than 1 MW. In this paper, a result of designing a small-scale motor-generator system, which is composed of motor, gear box, flywheel, and generator, is presented in the aspect of speed response. Design objective is to make a small-scale motor-generator system have the same time constant and optimal tip speed ratio region as a real MW wind turbine. A small-scale 3.5 kW motor-generator system for emulating response of a 2 MW wind turbine is considered and designed.
