Optimal Scheduling of Wind Turbine Generator Units Based on the Amount of Damage of Impeller

Impeller (blade and wheel) is one of the key components of wind turbine. According to different degrees of leaf and root damage and hub damage amount, a multi-objective scheduling model of wind farm with wind turbine impeller damage, wind turbine startup rate, and the uncertainty of the output of generator is established to improve the model output allocation strategy. Then optimize the model with the adaptive discrete particle swarm (ADPSO) and artificial bee colony algorithm (ABC), then obtaining the target power value and start-stop group. In combination with the practical example, the simulation results show that the proposed method optimizes the start-up and shut-down times of the wind turbines and improves the operating life of the wind turbines.
