摘要: System and methods for controlling the oscillation of floating ground stations in aerial wind turbine systems are disclosed. Thrusters on the ground station or on one or more aerial vehicles associated with the ground station apply a compensatory force to the oscillating ground station to reduce and/or substantially eliminate wave-induced oscillations. Submerged thrusters may also rotate the ground station to a preferred alignment direction with the waves. Additionally, control systems use environmental and/or positional sensor data to develop a predictive force profile that maps desired compensatory force magnitude versus time. The control systems use that predictive force profile to direct the thrusters to apply a varying compensatory force over time.

摘要: A method for operating a power generation system is presented. The method includes estimating, by a controller, at least one of a required load and input power of the doubly-fed induction generator for a pre-determined future time duration. The method includes comparing, by the controller, the estimated at least one of the required load and the input power with a corresponding threshold value. Moreover, the method includes transitioning, by the controller, operation of the power generation system from a partial power conversion mode to a full power conversion mode by controlling switching of one or more of a plurality of switches if the estimated at least one of the required load and the input power is less than the corresponding threshold value, wherein the plurality of switches includes a first set of switches coupled to stator winding of the doubly-fed induction generator.

摘要: A fuel cell system includes an air compressor that supplies oxidant gas to a fuel cell installed in a fuel cell vehicle, a measured rotational speed acquirer that acquires a measured value of rotational speed of the air compressor, and a controller that calculates a rotational speed command value of the air compressor based on required generated power of the fuel cell, calculates a torque command value of the air compressor based on the calculated rotational speed command value and current rotational speed of the air compressor, and controls rotational speed of the air compressor based on the calculated torque command value. The controller estimates the current rotational speed of the air compressor baaed on the measured value of the rotational speed acquired by the measured rotational speed acquirer and a history of the calculated torque command value, and calculates the torque command value by using the estimated rotational speed.

摘要: A method of controlling a wind turbine having a nacelle, a rotor, a rotating hub, a first rotor blade and at least a second rotor blade, both rotor blades being mounted to the hub. The method includes measuring the strain in the first rotor blade by a strain measurement device attached to the first rotor blade; and choosing the operational parameters of the wind turbine based on the measured strain such that fatigue damage of the second rotor blade is reduced. A wind turbine is controlled by such a method.

摘要: A wind turbine has a Lidar device to sense wind conditions upstream of the wind turbine. Signals from the wind turbine are processed to detect an extreme change in wind direction. The detection is performed by differentiating the rate of change of wind direction and filtering for a period of time. On detection of extreme change the system controller takes the necessary evasive action which may include shutting down the turbine, commencing an immediate yawing action, and de-rating the turbine until the yawing action is complete.

摘要: The present invention relates to a system for dynamic pitch control primarily for wind turbine blades, which system calculates the pitch position of the wind turbine blades independently, which control system performs feedback regulation. The object of the pending patent application is to perform effective pitch regulation and hereby to reduce thrust on the tower and the rotor. This can be achieved if the system performs feed forward regulation of the pitch of the blades, based on the load of the previous blade in substantially the same position. Hereby it can be achieved that the actual load on the previous blade has passed the same position in relation to the wind blowing around the wind turbine. Hereby it can be achieved that measured parameters are used after a short delay to perform a very precise and highly efficient adjustment of the next wind turbine blade passing the same position. The feed forward regulation can be combined with already existing control parameters for pitch control of wind turbine blades.

摘要: The present application is concerned with a flexible way of operating a wind farm with a plurality of degrading wind turbine components. According to the invention, maintenance scheduling and power production in the wind farm are handled concurrently in a single optimization step. Instead of a serial approach first scheduling maintenance activities and subsequently adapting the power production and/or wind turbine operation the two aspects are optimized together. The wind farm operation takes maintenance aspects into account by adapting life index or health status based on modeled mechanical and electrical stress. Accordingly, the wind farm owner may decide when and how much energy to produce accepting which level of stress to the turbine equipment. The proposed optimization of wind farm operation includes all aspects of transmission network operator settings, the topology of wind farms and the underlying collector grid, the short and long term wind conditions forecasts, the conditions of the turbines, the estimated remaining operational time under different usage patterns and times, as well as aspects of the electricity market.
