The time step is usually determined by making the rotor move at a specific angle (i.e. 0.5°, 1°) for a turbine with a constant speed. For the present proposed variable-speed turbine control cases, the rotational speed of each turbine is variable, so the time step independence is verified for the configuration shown in Fig. 5.
