Popis: | Assessment criteria for design of wind turbines controller are discussed since conventional control performance criteria are not sufficient to evaluate the mechanical loads as dependency of the controller type and settings. This will be presented and discussed using the example of the active power control of wind turbines. In contrast to the nominal operation of wind turbines divided into power optimization in the partial and power limitation in the full load region, the power output is guided by an external power reference signal. The reference signal may be delivered either directly by higher-level load frequency controller of the power system or by the wind farm controller. In both cases the external variation of the power to be delivered has an enormous influence on the dynamics and mechanical loads of the wind turbine. To quantify these loads that occur during power tracking operation the Damage Equivalent Load amplitude as appropriated load assessment criteria is described and prepared for control design. |
