Detailed Description

NOTE: This source file contains an example UserVSCont() user-specified routine for computing variable-speed controlled generator torque based on a table look-up of LSS speed and LSS torque provided in a spd_trq.dat input file.

It also contains an example UserGen, which calls UserVSCont. These routines were written by Kirk Pierce (KP), formerly of NREL/NWTC, and now with GE Wind Energy. Questions related to the use of these routines should be addressed to Kirk Pierce.
