Control objectives and strategies

Development of a wind turbine control system can be divided into four major steps:

define clearly control objectives

selection of suitable control strategies which determines the operation point of the wind turbine for each wind speed

decide how the control strategy will be realized --> selection of the control schemes, the controlled variables, the reference signals, the switching procedure between different controllers, etc.

design of the input-output map, meaning the characteristics of the controller according to the specifications

Control objectives for wind turbines

Control objectives

Energy capture: Maximization of energy capture taking into account safe operation restrictions such as rated power, rated speed and cut-out wind speed, etc.

Mechanical loads: Preventing WECS from excessive dynamic mechanical loads. This general goal includes reduction of transient loads, reduction of high frequency loads and resonance avoidance.

Power quality: Conditioning the generated power to comply with interconnection standards.

Operation point

Where / what is the steady-state of operation ?

the steady-state of operation is reached when the aerodynamic torque developed by the rotor equals the reaction torque of the generator

net torque applied to the system is zero

At the steady-state operation point the aerodynamical power equals the converted power (minus losses at the generator):

Pae = Pgen

Tae · ! = Tgen · !

! · (Tae ! Tgen) = 0" Tae ! Tgen = 0

Tae = Fae · R · cT

The power converted by the WEC is given by:

PWEC = Tae · ! = Pair · cp

! cT = cp · 1!

How does the aerodynamic torque change with u1 ?

Wind Energy I

Aerodynamic torque

The torque coefficient can be determined from the power coefficient. Until now we determined the maximum power coefficient by taking into consideration:

λ0

From Betz we know that there is one optimum ratio between u3 and u1. The WEC meets this at the design for λ0.

The cp coming from Betz in combination with the changing angle of attack for different u1, we get a power coefficient that depends on λ and α - cp(λ,α)

Control strategies

fixed-speed, fixed-pitch (FS-FP)

variable-speed, fixed-pitch (VS-FP)

fixed-speed, variable-pitch (FS-VP)

variable speed, variable-pitch (VS-VP)

Points in this torque-rotational speed plane (Tae-ω plane) that intersect with the generator torque define the steady-state operating conditions of the WEC. Different WEC control strategies results in different power curves P(u1), power coefficients cp(u1) and dynamical behavior.

Different strategies are:

For a variable-speed, fixed.pitch machine the rotational speed ωrot can be adapted to meet the optimum tip speed ratio λ0.

The rotational speed ωrot changes linearly with the ambient wind speed u1.This is applied in the region below rated wind speed.
