Nacelle LiDAR online wind field reconstruction applied to feedforward pitch control
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents innovative filtering and reconstruction techniques of nacelle LiDAR data, and exploitation of obtained wind anticipation capabilities for wind turbine control strategy. The implemented algorithms are applied under industrial constraints, on a MAIA EOLIS wind turbine, equipped with a LEOSPHERE 5-beams pulsed LiDAR, during experimental campaigns of SMARTEOLE collaborative project.

Field Testing of Feedforward Collective Pitch Control on the CART2 Using a Nacelle-Based Lidar Scanner
This work presents the first results from a field test to proof the concept of LIDAR assisted collective pitch control using a scanning LIDAR device installed on the nacelle of a research turbine. The purpose of the campaign was to show that a reduction of rotor speed variation is feasible with a feedforward update without changing the feedback controller. Although only a small amount of data c...
متن کاملField Testing of Flatness-Based Feedforward Control on the CART2
Nacelle-based lidar systems are offering a good opportunity for new wind turbine control strategies, since inflowing wind information can be used in the controller. The benefits of lidar-assisted collective pitch feedforward control have been presented over the last years and was successfully demonstrated in several field testings, latest results see [1, 2]. This controller yields an improved r...
متن کاملLidar Assisted Control of Wind Turbines
LIDAR systems are able to provide preview information of wind speed, direction and shears at various distances in front of the wind turbines. This technology paves the way for new control concepts such as feedforward control and model predictive control to increase the energy production and to reduce loads of wind turbines. This paper describes how the necessary information can be obtained from...

متن کامل9 Lidars and wind turbine control – Part 1
In recent years lidar technology found its way into wind energy. The main application is still the site assessment, but the possibility to optimize the energy production and reduce the loads by nacelle or spinner based lidar systems is becoming an important issue. In terms of control the inflowing wind field is the main disturbance to the wind turbine and most of the wind turbine control is des...
