MATLAB: How to increase the power in the power_wind_type_4_avg model

Question

I am trying to change the power output of the Wind Turbine Plant model (power_wind_type_4_avg) from the preset 10MW to 20MW. I have tried to change the rating of the turbines from 10MW to 20MW, but the output was still the same. How can I do this?

Answer 1

To increase the power from 10MW to 20MW, you have to increase the number of wind turbines from 5 to 10 in the wind turbine mask. You then also have to change the gain block that leads into the scope as follows:

Please note that drastic changes to the model will make the plant unstable. The rating of physical components and control parameters need to be redesigned when adding turbines.
