Studies have also included design and commissioning of a measuring system comprising Signal Conditioning card, AD card and transducers for current, voltage, shaft speed and temperature; October 2000 – January 2001: guest researcher at Aalborg University, Denmark on a project entitled “Power Plant Characteristic of Wind Farms” (in collaboration with RISO). The wind generator models were developed in both dedicated power systems simulation tools, Matlab-Simulink and DIgSILENT Power Factory, which provides the ability to simulate load flow, RMS fluctuations and transient events in the same software environment.
