This paper presents the modeling and simulation of a wind energy conversion system using Matlab/Simulink, focusing on a variable-speed horizontal axis wind turbine. Numerical simulations were performed to analyze the system's behavior, particularly during the transition from variable wind speeds to predefined fixed wind speeds, chosen to represent moderate and higher wind conditions. These variable wind speeds were selected to evaluate the system's performance under steady-state scenarios, providing valuable insights into its efficiency and adaptability to changing wind dynamics.
