Fatigue load estimation and reduction for wind turbine
Introduction Fatigue is the structural damage that leads the components of a wind turbine to sudden brittle failure when it suffers cyclic loading [15]. As the size of wind turbines is growing, fatigue loads become more and more significant for the design of major structural components. Concerning fatigue in a wind turbine tower, the fore-aft tower foot bending moment is considered as the most ...
متن کاملClosed-Loop Control Wind Tunnel Tests on an Adaptive Wind Turbine Blade for Load Reduction
Wind tunnel tests on a non-rotating, dynamically scaled wind turbine blade equipped with variable trailing edge geometry were carried out. The effectiveness of the system for active load reduction purposes, with the interaction between structural dynamics, aerodynamics and control was tested. The actuation of the adaptive trailing edge was based on a piezoelectric bender actuator. The full aero...
متن کاملIndividual Pitch Control for Wind Turbine Load Reduction Including Wake Modeling
Individual pitch control (IPC) for wind turbine load reduction in Region 3 operation is improved when wake interaction is considered. The Larsen wake model is applied for composing the rotor wind profile for downstream turbines under wake interaction. The wind profile of the turbine wake was generated by modifying the NREL’s TurbSim codes. The state-space models of wind turbine were obtained vi...
متن کاملLoad Reduction Pitch Control for Large Scale Wind Turbines based on Sliding Mode
With the wind turbines being produced toward to large scale and light weight, the flexibility of blade, drive mechanism and tower increase apparently. Loads suffered by wind turbines during operation become increasingly intricate. Some control approaches could be used to cut down these loads in orde to expand life cycle of generating sets. Aiming at the full load operation zone above rated wind...
متن کاملRobust Control Design for Load Reduction on a Liberty Wind Turbine
The increasing size of modern wind turbines also increases the structural loads on the turbine caused by effects like turbulence or asymmetries in the inflowing wind field. Consequently, the use of advanced control algorithms for active load reduction has become a relevant part of current wind turbine control systems. In this paper, an H∞-norm optimal multivariable control design approach for a...
