Good all, for a work I am doing, I need to determine the rpm of a turbine for a constant wind speed of 3.5 m/s and a constant resistive torque of 15 N-cm. The problem I am encountering with my simulation is that the rpm does not converge to any stationary value, but on the contrary, it does not stop increasing the more simulation time I add. I am currently simulating with a very small interval of 0.05 seconds to prevent the simulation from diverging but I can't find where the problem is and how to address it in order to get the results. If anyone knows how I could try to modify the simulation to get the results I would greatly appreciate it.
