Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of controlling the aerodynamic load of a wind turbine's blades individually in such a way that the dynamic aerodynamic loads on the turbine are reduced and power production is optimised.
- the present invention will improve the overall stability of the turbine leading to reduced fatigue loads, reduced extreme loads during operation and reduced risk of blade-tower interaction.
- flow properties are measured locally on the different blades or in front of the blades and from these measurements the pitch angle settings are changed, in other ways changing the aerodynamic properties, for the blades through a control unit.
- the invention relates to methods for the specific flow measurement as well as the method of designing the control system, and methods how to change the aerodynamic properties of the blades.
- Modern wind turbines are of such a s ⁇ -;e that the wind most rarely is uniform over the entire rotor area. These differences in wind speed, which are a result of turbulence, wind shear, yaw error operation, tower shadow, wake effects etc., results in varying aerodynamic forces on the blades during rotation, causing major fatigue loads on the turbine and in some cases also extreme loads.
- a particular preferred embodiment of the present invention measures and uses flow parameters.
- the method preferably also comprises steps and means for calculation of the load reducing individual pitch angle settings, as an overlaying signal to the power related collective pitch setting.
- a method for controlling individually the operational condition of each blade of a wind turbine preferably comprising at least two blades comprises preferably the steps of determining at least one aerodynamic flow property in the vicinity of each blades and determining based on the determined flow property or properties one or more operational condition, such as pitch angle, flap angle or the like, for each blade.
- the operational condition for a given blade is the pitch angle and wherein said pitch angle comprise a contribution determined on the basis of the angle of attack for the blade and a contribution determined on the basis of the velocity relatively to the blade.
- the invention also comprises a wind turbine being adapted to carry out the method according to the invention.

- Fig. 23 shows 1 Hz equivalent loads for selected sensors
- Fig. 24 shows electrical power mean values. A small difference is seen at wind speed between 10 and 16 m/s.
- This new load reducing regulation strategy is preferably based on measurement of the inflow parameters angle of attack and relative velocity. It is clear that a very strong correlation between changes in inflow parameters and blade load response exist, see. eg Madsen-1991, Figure 8, and that if the inflow is known, actions can be done to alleviate the following load increment.
- the most direct properties to be measured is, at present, considered to be the local relative wind velocity and angle of attack at the single blade in a representative distance from the hub. This can be done using a pitot tube, see fig 2 mounted at 3/4 to 5/6 of blade radius, see. fig 1.
- the advantage of this system is that both velocity and angle of attack are measured and that the measurement can be done in front of the blade.
- the system is designed in a way that makes it robust and easy to maintain.
- Another way to measure the wind velocity and angle of attack in front of the blade is to use a tube with pressure measurement devices. Same principle as the pitot tube, this embodiment is an example of a robust and easy to maintain design, see fig. 3
- a third way to measure the velocity and angle of attack is to use a sonic anemometer placed in front of the blade, see fig. 4.
- a sonic anemometer placed in front of the blade, see fig. 4.
- a fourth way to measure the velocity and angle of attack is by measuring the local pressure distribution on the blade profile, see fig. 5a, 5b.
- a fifth way to measure the angle of incidence is using a movable trailing edge flap, see fig 6.
- the method preferably utilises measured aerodynamic parameters to control the pitch angles of the blades in such a way that dynamic loads are reduced and the power output of the turbine remains unchanged or even slightly increased.
- the invention is preferably based solely on aerodynamic properties and the method does therefore preferably not utilise direct measurements of for instance mechanical load.
- one way to do so is to minimise the error between the instant angle of attack of the blade and the average angle of attack of all blades. This can be done e.g. by using a proportional-integral regulator as illustrated in fig. 7. As for the angle of attack also the local velocity on the blade is influencing the aerodynamic force.
- the power output controller is controlling the collective pitch settings of the blades where this invention provides an overlying pitch signal that is load reducing. Since the angle of attack preferably is measured it is also possible to optimise the collective pitch angles, hence produce more power. The reason for this is that the local aerodynamic profile has an optimal angle of attack, where the lift is high and the drag is low. At low wind speed, where a power output optimisation is desired, the collective pitch angle setting can be controlled by the average angle of attack measurement.
- the particular relative velocity regulator used in this analysis is based on a calculation of wind speeds in plane with the rotor V x .
- V x V rd cos( ⁇ + ⁇ ) (1)
- ⁇ Si,h (V x - V x me ) ( ⁇ , ⁇ col ) (2)
- (V x -V X;ave ) is the error between in-plane relative velocity on the single blade and the average in-plane relative velocity of the three blades and K(o>A 0. ) is a gain function.
- This gain function is in principle a function of wind speed, but it is more robust to use the collective pitch angle at high wind speeds and the rotor speed at low wind speed.
- the gain function is based on calculations in skew inflow with the turbine equipped with a cyclic pitch regulator, since this regulation is very suitable to compensate such inflow, see
- ⁇ 0 is the pitch angle with zero gain (approx. 9° in Figure 15)
- ⁇ CO ⁇ is the collective pitch angle
- ⁇ is the rotational speed of the rotor
- ⁇ ref is rated rotational speed of the rotor.
- the angle of attack is measured it is also possible to optimise the collective pitch angles, hence produce more power.
- the reason for this is that the local aerodynamic profile has an optimal angle of attack, where the lift is high and the drag is low.
- the collective pitch angle setting can be controlled by the average angle of attack measurement, see fig. 9. Since the relation between lift, drag and angle of attack is highly non-linear in the region of max. lift the load reducing control part stated above is believed to result in better power output performance as the angle of attacks of the blades will be more constant, hence have a higher mean average in lift, see fig. 10.
- the basic method of controlling the aerodynamic lift and drag of the blades is by changing the pitch angles of the individual blades as stated above. Methods of changing the pitchangles individually can be found in e.g. EP 1 241 350 Al, US-5,011,373, EP 0 359 624 Bl.
- a second method of changing the aerodynamic load is by having a blade where the camber of the profile could be controlled actively, see fig 11.
- a third method of changing the aerodynamic profile is by flaps or ailerons, see fig. 12.
- the control systems have been compared through aeroelastic simulation with the code HAWC, see Petersen-1997, Larsen-2001.
- Several types of simulations have been performed starting with basic simulations in deterministic wind fields to understand the behavioi of the diffei ent conti oilers and ending with simulations in stochastic turbulence as the turbine would experience in practice.
- the turbine used in the simulations has a rated nominal power of 2 ⁇ MW.
- the different control strategies are simulated in a variety of situations both with and without natural turbulence.
- the special negative wind shear is similar to the positive but with increasing wind speed from the hub to 50% higher at rotor bottom.
- the rotor tilt angle is set to zero since this basically corresponds to a yaw error contribution.
- Figure 18 is seen the behaviour of a turbine equipped with the individual pitch system.
- the blade flap moments and the tower top yaw moments are reduced and so is the difference in angle of attack compared to the average angle of attack of the three blades.
- the pitch angles are varied non-sinusoidal, which is the main reason of the very low yaw moments.
- a fatigue load spectrum based on IEC61400-1 class IB has been calculated.
- the load cases are normal production cases with a yaw error of ⁇ 10% and wind speeds ranging from 4m/s to 24m/s.
- Roughness length is 0.2m which corresponds to the wind shear specified in IEC61400.
- the turbulence is modeled with the Mann model, see Mann-1998.
