Abstract: A method for controlling a wind turbine connected to an electrical grid includes receiving, via a controller, a state estimate of the wind turbine. The method also includes determining, via the controller, a current condition of the wind turbine using, at least, the state estimate, the current condition defining a set of condition parameters of the wind turbine. Further, the method includes receiving, via the controller, a control function from a supervisory controller, the control function defining a relationship of the set of condition parameters with at least one operational parameter of the wind turbine. Moreover, the method includes dynamically controlling, via the controller, the wind turbine based on the current condition and the control function for multiple dynamic control intervals.

Abstract: A wind turbine control system is disclosed. The wind turbine control system includes a wind turbine, at least one sensor configured to detect at least one environmental condition associated with the wind turbine, and a wind turbine controller communicatively coupled to the wind turbine and the at least one sensor. The wind turbine controller includes at least one processor in communication with at least one memory device. The at least one processor is configured to retrieve at least one wind condition variable associated with the wind turbine, retrieve a power curve, the power curve generated based on the at least one wind condition variable by computing, for each of a plurality of wind speed values, a power value, receive, from the at least one sensor, sensor data, and control the wind turbine using the generated power curve based on the received sensor data.

Abstract: A control system is disclosed. The control system includes a wind turbine, at least one sensor configured to detect at least one property of the wind turbine to generate measurement data, and a controller communicatively coupled to the wind turbine and the at least one sensor. The controller includes at least one processor in communication with at least one memory device. The at least one processor is configured to control, during a training phase, the wind turbine according to at least one test parameter, receive, from the at least one sensor, during the training phase, first measurement data, generate, based on the at least one test parameter and the received first measurement data, a control model, receive, during an operating phase, second measurement data from the at least one sensor, and update the control model continuously based on the second measurement data.
