Abstract
This work is inspired by the motivation to give more importance to the difficult task of mathematical modeling in the engineering industry by providing an own wind turbine model design. Model design is a complex and very important work which lacks attribution in most engineering projects. Moreover, current global problems such as climate change have prompted the decision to design a model of a technology that is helping to alleviate the effects of this major problem; wind turbines, capable of generating energy through renewable sources. This paper shows the importance of model design and focuses on the process of modeling the most essential parts of a wind turbine. The aerodynamic design that captures the kinetic energy of the wind and the gearbox which transforms that energy into generated power are the most relevant aspects. In the latter, two types of gearbox models are analyzed: one-mass and two-mass models. Both are designed and subsequently compared. In addition, a pitch controller is also implemented to automate this turbine in the case of variable winds which may damage the parts that make up the wind turbine. Finally, to prove the correct functionality of the model designed in this work, a variable wind profile has been created, so that the dynamic behavior in different situations can be analyzed. After validating the design of this work it is concluded that the realization of mathematical models can greatly help in many engineering projects and are able to avoid serious errors during design and fabrication stages. The simulation of these models provides useful data and allows for the testing of different ideas that can help with the creation of more efficient and beneficial technologies for both companies and society in general.
