Assessment of Extremum Seeking Control for Wind Farm Energy Production

摘要: Aerodynamic interaction among turbines grouped together in wind farms causes a decrease the total energy extracted from when compared to an equal number of widely dispersed operating under same input conditions as farm. Extremum seeking control (ESC) is one strategy that holds promise for reducing this impact certain conditions. In paper, we evaluate effectiveness ESC different turbulence conditions, describing methods addressing complexities caused by turbulent and time-varying delay between turbines, where these two elements are most important contributions other farm research. The results show capture can be increased low intensity but perhaps not high
