Abstract
This chapter studies the dynamics and control methods of a wind turbine system. Although, there are various types of wind turbines, a general argument applicable to all types of wind turbines is attempted. Since the knowledge of the dynamics of each system is very essential to design a proper controller for that system, therefore, we first develop the dynamic equations of each part of a wind turbine system. The overall model will be the integration of all subsystem models. Next, the control algorithms of a wind turbine will be discussed. Since a wind turbine generator has several levels of control, these levels will be explained in detail. All subsystem control concept and implementation methods are explained after that.
