A Study on the Active Induction Control of Upstream Wind Turbines for total power increases
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, the effect of active induction control of upstream wind turbines is investigated. Two scaled wind turbines having a rotor diameter of 1 m with a spacing of four times of the rotor diameter were used to experimentally validate the concept. Also, an in-house c code was used to simulate the same two wind turbines and see if the experimental observations can be obtained. From the experiment, approximately 0.81% increase of total power could be observed. Although the simulation results were not exactly the same as the experimental results but the shape was similar and the maximum power increase of 0.27% was predicted. Also from further simulation using NREL 5MW wind turbines instead of scaled wind turbines with realistic ambient turbulence intensity, it was found that the power increase could become more than 1%.

One of the main tasks of the control systems in the wind turbines is to maintain the power of the wind when its wind speed proceed its nominal value. Because the failure to maintain the power in its nominal value in the region of the turbine curve damages the turbine and increases the mechanical stress. This object is obtained by controlling the pitch angle in the third region of the turbine cu...
