Abstract:As the size of wind turbines (WTs) increases, an additional increase in the structural load on the WT components is to be expected. This will have an impact on operational safety in terms of damage and service life. Spatial and temporal fluctuations in wind speed are responsible for the fatigue load during power generation. To minimize the effects of varying stresses, advanced control systems that incorporate appropriate models of the disturbances are proposed. These controllers are usually developed based on … Show more
