An electromechanical emulation-based study on the behaviour of wind energy conversion systems during short circuit faults

•An emulator is developed to study the behavior of wind turbines during grid faults.•Effects of grid faults on the electrical parts of WT are investigated by the emulator.•Effects of grid faults on the blade and tower of WT are studied by the emulator.•Simulation studies are done to evaluate the per...
