Wind Turbine Synchronous Reset Pitch Control

摘要: Reset controllers are commonly used to smooth the transient response of systems. We use this technique improve a standard baseline pitch controller for offshore wind turbines (WTs). The introduction strategy enhances overall performance WT. In particular, fore-aft and side-to-side accelerations WT tower significantly reduced, whilst steadier power output is obtained, in comparison controller. Furthermore, our designed control’s main advantage, with respect baseline, its ease implementation reduced complexity as it does not require gain-scheduling technique, nor position measurement (thus, insensitive sensor faults). proposed approach has been simulated on NREL 5-MW prototype turbine model, mounted jacket support. simulations carried out using aero-hydro-servo-elastic simulator FAST, key observations thoroughly discussed.
