Abstract

Given the difficulty of accurately setting multiple control parameters in wind turbines, a design method for a pitch controller considering tower load reduction is proposed, which enhances the control performance and reduces both the tower vibration and load. Firstly, the pitch-speed system and the tower fore-aft active damping control are built. In addition, the explicit equation of the tower fore-aft active damping gain is deduced to calculate its initial value. Secondly, the pitch-speed system is identified as an inertial time-delay system using the least squares method. Subsequently, the pitch PI control parameters are set using the Chien–Hrones–Reswick method. Thirdly, the pitch PI control parameters and the tower fore-aft active damping gains are optimized based on the kindred-protected genetic algorithm, which improves the accuracy of the control parameters. Meanwhile, the Pareto method is used to coordinate the control objectives by allocating the weight. Furthermore, the adaptive control is built by fitting the parameters with the wind speed points using the least squares method to enhance the control performance. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed design method is verified by comparing the control performance with the tower vibration and load.
