    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting icing and other loadings on blades of wind turbines. Advantageously, the method utilizes existing wind turbine actuators, for example pitch actuators, far excitation of blade vibrations. Vibration sensors on the blade such as strain sensors or accelerometers measure the blade vibrations excited in response to the actively excised vibrations. By comparing the measured response with previously obtained reference responses, it is possible to determine if blade icing is present.

    Abstract: in a method of controlling a variable speed wind turbine, said wind turbine comprising a double-fed asynchronous generator having rotor windings and stator windings and means for controlling the wind turbine speed, the method comprises the following steps:—measuring or calculating, based on measured parameters, the active electrical power (Pr) in the rotor windings, comparing the active electrical power (Pr) in the rotor windings with a preset limit (PrLimit), when the active electrical power (Pr) in the rotor windings exceeds the preset limit (PrLimit), controlling the wind turbine speed to minimize the difference between the active electrical power (Pr) in the rotor windings and a preset reference (PrRef). The rotor power (Pr) is kept at a reduced level, thus avoiding overload of wind turbine generator components.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a pitch control system for operating the blade pitch of the rotor blades of a wind turbine generator. A method is disclosed wherein a command signal or pitch demand is applied to the blade pitch system of the rotor blades and the resulting response signal or pitch response is received. The received pitch response is compared to a reference and a signal indicative of a pitch system fault may be generated if a difference between the response signal and the reference is detected as being larger than a preset criterion. The deviating behaviour of a blade pitch system can thereby be detected which enables a testing or monitoring of the condition of the pitch system of the rotor blades of a wind turbine generator.

    Abstract: A method for operating a wind turbine includes: providing a curve defining optimal pitch angle as a function of tip speed ratio or as a function of wind speed; modifying at least a part of the optimal pitch angle curve by applying a safety buffer, thereby obtaining a safety modified pitch angle curve; operating the wind turbine in accordance with the safety modified pitch angle curve; measuring one or more parameters regarding wind conditions and/or loads on one or more component of the wind turbine; adjusting the safety buffer, based on the measurements, thereby obtaining an adjusted pitch angle curve; and operating the wind turbine in accordance with the adjusted pitch angle curve. Since the safety buffer is adjusted based on measured parameters, it can be reduced if actual operating conditions are less severe than expected. This allows the wind turbine to be operated in a more optimal manner.
