摘要
Simple demanded power point tracking (DPPT) control algorithms with a mode switch are proposed and experimentally validated in this study. One is a torque-based control and uses the generator torque with fixed blade-pitch angle. The other is blade-pitch based and uses both the generator torque and blade pitch for DPPT control. Both control algorithms receive power demand from a higher-level controller and use their control strategies to track it. The two DPPT control algorithms were integrated with the basic torque and pitch control algorithms, and simulations using an in-house code and a high fidelity multi-body dynamic aeroelastic code were performed for steady and dynamic conditions. To verify the algorithms experimentally, wind tunnel tests with a scaled wind turbine having active pitch control capability were performed. From the simulation and the test, the proposed DPPT algorithms integrated into the conventional control algorithm were found to work well with the basic wind turbine power control algorithm. The torque-based control showed better performance in terms of power tracking, but the pitch-based control showed better performance in terms of loading.
