    摘要: Aspects of the present invention relate to a method for controlling one or more wind turbine generators. The method comprises: receiving a trigger signal, and implementing an active power boost mode during a predetermined time period in response to receiving the trigger signal. The active power boost mode comprises: disregarding further trigger signals; and generating one or more upper active power limits for each of the one or more wind turbine generators, wherein, during at least a first portion of the predetermined time period, the one or more upper active power limits are fixed at an active power boost level that is greater than a nominal active power level of the one or more wind turbine generators.

    摘要: A method for operating a first wind power installation comprising a rotor having a rotor blade that is adjustable with a pitch angle, which generates an electrical power and in the wake of which a second wind power installation is located in at least one wake wind direction, comprising the step of: operating the first wind power installation in a substantially wake-free normal mode with a first pitch characteristic, and operating the first wind power installation in a wake-loaded wake mode with a second pitch characteristic, wherein the first pitch characteristic represents a first profile of the pitch angle and the second pitch characteristic represents a second profile of the pitch angle as a function of the electrical power, wherein the pitch angle of the second pitch characteristic is greater than the pitch angle of the first pitch characteristic for at least one range of the electrical power. The method seeks to maximise the annual energy production of the second wind power installation while complying with constraints, such as compliance with maximum thrust coefficients or wake-influenced turbulence intensities.

    摘要: A cooperative operation optimization control method for wind turbine groups, including: dividing wind turbine groups based on a digital model and an improved Jensen wake model; performing multi-degree-of-freedom controller design on wind turbines; calculating an ultimate load of the wind turbines jointly by using two methods, and constructing a safe load constraint and a yaw angle constraint for wind turbine operation in conjunction with a safe load coefficient; establishing a collaborative optimization problem model of the wind turbine groups by taking the maximum generating power of the wind turbine groups as an optimization objective, a yaw angle of an upstream wind turbine as a decision variable, and the safe load constraint, the yaw angle constraint and a power change range of the upstream wind turbine as constraint conditions; and determining a cooperative operation optimization algorithm for the wind turbine groups, and optimizing the yaw angle of the wind turbines.

    摘要: A wind turbine is provided including: i) a tower, ii) a nacelle coupled to the tower, iii) a yaw system arranged between the tower and the nacelle and configured to move the nacelle with respect to the tower, iv) an orientation determination device, configured to detect a current relative orientation between the nacelle and the wind direction to obtain an alignment parameter, v) a wind parameter determination device, configured to detect a current wind parameter to obtain a wind parameter, and vi) a control system being configured to: a) receive the alignment parameter and the wind parameter to obtain a load criterion, b) provide a maximum load criterion based on a maximum misalignment criterion that is different for at least two different wind parameters, c) determine, if the load criterion fulfills the maximum load criterion, and d) control the yaw system based on the determination result.
