A framework for simulating tethered wings for kite power is presented. The simulation tool contains a detailed aerodynamic model and a realistic tether model. With the aerodynamic tool, two different wings are analyzed regarding their efficiency. The aerodynamic efficiency of kites is determined with a parameter study showing the trends of the most important geometrical parameters. Those wings are manually flown in the simulator and the flight behavior is discussed. Finally, power cycles of a pumping system are simulated and controlled automatically and results are compared.
