RISPeriodic Disturbance Accommodating Control for Blade Load Mitigation in Wind Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Performance of a model-based periodic gain controller for wind turbines is presented using Disturbance Accommodating Control (DAC) techniques to estimate fluctuating wind disturbances. The control ...
Design of Controls to Attenuate Loads in the Controls Advanced Research Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The wind industry seeks to design wind turbines to maximize energy production and increase fatigue life. To achieve this goal, we must design wind turbines to extract maximum energy and reduce ...
Testing State-Space Controls for the Controls Advanced Research Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Control can improve wind turbine performance by enhancing energy capture and reducing dynamic loads. At the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, we are implementing and testing state-space controls ...
Design of State-Space-Based Control Algorithms for Wind Turbine Speed Regulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Control can improve the performance of wind turbines by enhancing energy capture and reducing dynamic loads. At the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, we are beginning to design control ...
Methods for Increasing Region 2 Power Capture on a Variable-Speed Wind Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The standard region 2 control scheme for a variable-speed wind turbine, τc=Kω2, has several shortcomings that can result in significant power loss. The first of these is that there is no ...
