Wind Turbine Controls Research

Posted on by mkeating
Fariba Fateh at the 15th annual Capitol Graduate Research Summit

A nonlinear adaptive control scheme for wind turbines has been developed. The role of the controller is to adaptively reach the maximum estimated power coefficient when the wind speed changes. The contribution of this work is that instead of using the dither signal used in previous investigations, the extremum seeking controller uses fluctuations in wind speed to adaptively maximize the output power. This control scheme has been verified using the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) 5MW reference turbine model.

This work was supported in part by the industry sponsored KSU Electric Power Affiliates Program and supervised by Dr. Don Gruenbacher and Dr. Warren N. White. Some of the findings of this ongoing research will also be presented at the American Control Conference, June 4-6, 2014, Portland, Oregon.

  14. Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The words in your content seem to be running off the screen in Safari.
    I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but
    I figured I’d post to let you know. The layout look great though!
    Hope you get the issue fixed soon. Thanks
