The inexact power output from a pitch angle-controlled (PAC) horizontal-axis turbine, as influenced by short duration wind variations like turbulence and gusts, has been the subject of well-documented experimental and empirical studies. In this paper, an analytical interpretation of the phenomena is presented under assumption of two-parameter Weibull statistics for short duration wind variations. The popular concept of turbulence intensity is used as a parametric measure for randomness of wind speed. The formulations culminate in analytical expressions for two distinct metrics of power distortion, namely: (a) the short duration output power from the turbine as a mean distinct from corresponding ideal zero-turbulence value; and (b) the output power variability as a quantification of randomness around the mean. Estimates of both metrics are presented for operating conditions in accordance with the well-known IEC 61400-1 standards. Trends indicated by computed estimates are found to be consistent with empirically observed data from field studies that are reported in the literature.
