Fault tolerant wind farm control - A benchmark model
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the recent years the wind turbine industry has focused on optimizing the cost of energy. One of the important factors in this is to increase reliability of the wind turbines. Advanced fault detection, isolation and accommodation are important tools in this process. Clearly most faults are dealt with best at a wind turbine control level. However, some faults are better dealt with at the wind farm control level. In this paper a benchmark model for fault detection and isolation, and fault tolerant control of wind turbines implemented at the wind farm control level is presented. The benchmark model includes a small wind farm of nine wind turbines, based on a simple model of a wind turbine as well as the wind and interactions between wind turbines in the wind farm. The model includes wind and power references scenarios as well as three relevant fault scenarios. This benchmark model is used in an international competition dealing with Wind Farm fault detection and isolation and fault tolerant control.

This paper addresses the design of an observer-based fault diagnosis scheme, which is applied to some of the sensors and actuators of a wind turbine benchmark model. The methodology is based on a modified sliding mode observer (SMO) that allows accurate reconstruction of multiple sensor or actuator faults occurring simultaneously. The faults are reconstructed using the equivalent output err...

In recent years, individual pitch control has been developed for wind turbines, with the purpose of reducing blade and tower loads. Such algorithms depend on reliable sensor information. The azimuth angle sensor, which positions the wind turbine rotor in its rotation, is quite important. This sensor has to be correct as blade pitch actions should be different at different azimuth angle as the w...

This paper aims to solve the fault tolerant control problem of a wind turbine benchmark. A hierarchical controller with model predictive pre-compensators, a global model predictive controller and a supervisory controller is proposed. In the model predictive pre-compensator, an extended Kalman Filter is designed to estimate the system states and various fault parameters. Based on the estimation,...
