Wind Turbine Tower Resonance
Wind turbine towers are large structures designed to withstand the unique loading conditions imposed on them by the turbine’s nacelle and dynamic forces from the rotating blades. Observations and noise measurements of a particular wind turbine showed high noise levels at approximately 48 Hz, which could not be explained from the usual known potential noise sources. Correlated far field noise me...
متن کاملDynamics and Control of Lateral Tower Vibrations in Offshore Wind Turbines by Means of Active Generator Torque
Lateral tower vibrations of offshore wind turbines are normally lightly damped, and large amplitude vibrations induced by wind and wave loads in this direction may significantly shorten the fatigue life of the tower. This paper proposes the modeling and control of lateral tower vibrations in offshore wind turbines using active generator torque. To implement the active control algorithm, both th...
متن کاملOptimal Height for a Wind Tower on a Building in Yazd
Wind is one of the cleanest and cheapest renewable energies. One of the wind energy production technologies is use of small wind turbines installed in urban areas. However, installing these turbines in urban areas is associated with problems such as low wind speed and turbulence but if installed in the wrong location, their generated electricity is zero. In this study for the use of wind energy...
متن کاملLQG control of horizontal wind turbines for blades and tower loads alleviation
The paper deals with the LQG controller design optimizing the amount of power produced by two bladed horizontal variable speed wind turbines. The proposed controller ensures not only an optimal operation of turbines but also enables a compromise with the minimization of the blade oscillations and with the tower bending tendency.
متن کاملPitch Control for Eliminating Tower Vibration Events on Active Stall Wind Turbines
Negative aerodynamic damping causes tower vibrations on turbines with stall rotors. Under certain conditions, these vibrations may rise to a level that causes a shutdown. Active stall turbines have a pitch system, and the objective of the work was to develop pitch control algorithms which would minimise the probability of tower vibrations rising to the shutdown level. The results of a root caus...
