Abstract: A method and control arrangement are disclosed for controlling power output of a wind power plant (WPP) including a plurality of wind turbine generators (WTGs). The method includes determining that overboosting is required for the WPP to meet a power demand at the WPP, and determining, for at least a first WTG of the plurality of WTGs, a corresponding amount of overboost capacity. The method further includes generating, based on the determined amount of overboost capacity, control signals causing the first WTG to increase its power output through overboosting to thereby fulfill at least a portion of the power demand.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for operating a wind turbine, the wind turbine particularly comprising a tower and a rotor with rotor blades. The pitch angles of the rotor blades are adjusted to generate a force on the rotor and the tower. The force is adjusted to counteract and damp an oscillation. The adjustment is enabled by an activation decision unit, if the activation decision unit decides that certain parameters characterising the oscillation or loads of the tower indicate a requirement and/or if the activation decision unit determines that the generated force is sufficient to counteract an oscillation of the tower. In various embodiments the parameters characterising the oscillation or loads of the tower comprise current oscillations and their amplitude, an estimate of loads incurred in the turbine structure, an estimate whether damping in the near future might become necessary, an indication whether a different oscillation damping algorithm than individual blade pitch control is currently performing, and an indication whether a wind speed is above a certain portion of a rated wind speed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of controlling a wind turbine, the wind turbine comprising wind turbine blades attached to a rotor hub and a control system for pitching the blades relative to the hub. The method comprises providing wake sectors assigned to different wind directions and providing a normal pitch schedule to control an output parameter of the wind turbine (e.g. power, rotational speed), comprising pitch reference values as a function of the wind speed and at least one of the parameters of thrust coefficient C t and axial induction factor a. Further, is provided a modified pitch schedule to control a modified output parameter of the wind turbine, comprising pitch reference values in dependence of the wind speed and at least one modified parameter of the thrust coefficient and/or the axial induction factor. Upon receiving indications of a wind speed and a wind direction at the wind turbine is determined a pitch reference value for the wind turbine blades according to the normal pitch schedule if the wind direction falls outside the wake sector and otherwise according to the modified pitch schedule. The wind turbine is then controlled according to the pitch reference value. The invention further relates to a method of controlling the wind turbines in a wind park, wherein each wind turbine in the park is controlled locally according to the above mentioned control method.

Abstract: A method is provided for warning a wind turbine generator (WTG) (100) in a wind park (200, 400, 1300) of an extreme wind event. According to one embodiment of the method, one or more WTGs are adaptively selected to operate as front line WTGs. The one or more front line WTGs detect extreme wind events and provide a warning (230) to other WTGs. The selection of front line WTGs is adaptive to changing wind conditions. In another embodiment, a wind park (200, 400, 1300) includes a group of one or more WTGs of a first type (220) located in an inner region of the wind park and a plurality of WTGs of a second type (210) located in an outer region of the wind park that at least partially surrounds the inner region. The first type of WTG (220) is structurally weaker and/or rated for higher performance than the second type of WTG (210).

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention generally relate to wind turbine generators, and more specifically to improving power production in wind turbine generators. A rotor plane of the wind turbine may be divided into a plurality of sections. A characteristic of wind associated with each section may be determined. An optimal pitch angle may be determined for each section based on the associated wind characteristic. A pitch controller may adjust the pitch angle of a blade to the optimal pitch angle as the blade sweeps through the section.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of controlling a wind turbine having a rotor with pitchable wind turbine blades and a generator for producing power, where a control signal for a controllable parameter of the wind turbine is determined, and an operational parameter representing a loading on the wind turbine exerted by the wind is estimated at time intervals. From this is determined a variation parameter reflecting the variation of the operational parameter over time. The wind turbine is then controlled according to the control signal only if the variation parameter is below an alert threshold, and otherwise according to a modified control strategy.

Abstract: A method of damping motion of a wind turbine, the wind turbine comprising a rotor and a floating platform. A motion signal is generated which is indicative of a motion of the wind turbine. A wind direction signal is generated which is indicative of a wind direction relative to the floating platform. A damping signal is generated on the basis of the motion signal and the wind direction signal, and the motion of the wind turbine is damped on the basis of the damping signal, for instance by adjusting the pitch of the rotor blades. A phase of the damping signal may be controlled on the basis of the wind direction signal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a rotor control system for actuating pitch of pitch adjustable rotor blades of a wind turbine in order to reduce edgewise blade vibrations. The system comprises a pitch actuation unit being arranged to receive a torsional vibration signal and apply a filter to the torsional vibration signal to couple the torsional vibration signal to an edgewise vibration of the rotor blades. An m-blade coordinate transformation, such as the Coleman transformation, is applied to the filtered torsional vibrational signal to obtain pitch modification signals.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a control system for a wind turbine comprising more controllers and where at least some of the controllers operate at different sample frequencies. The control system comprises at least two controller units, a first controller (10) for determining an operational value (OV) of a sub-system and a second controller (20) for the sub-system. The second controller operates at a higher sample frequency than the first controller. It is disclosed that a faster reaction to a received demand value (V1), received for controlling the sub-system, can be obtained by setting the operational value (OV) of the sub- system as the sum of an internal operational value (V5) and a difference value (V4).
