【 摘 要 】

This technical paper describes the design and characterization of a controllable model wind turbine for wind tunnel experiments. The setup of the turbine and the implementation of the control system are described in detail and tests of the control system are shown. Finally, results of one exemplary scientific application are presented, where the model turbine was exposed to turbulent, intermittent inflow and the controller influence on torque fluctuations is investigated.
