Nonlinear model predictive control of floating wind turbines
In this work a nonlinear model predictive control method for a floating wind turbine is presented. A reduced nonlinear model including disturbance preview of wind and waves is derived and implemented to compute optimal input trajectories for collective pitch and the generator torque. A cost functional is introduced which fulfills all desired constraints and controller goals for above rated wind conditions. The controller is tested for extreme and fatigue load cases and a significant reduction of the power and rotor speed deviations is obtained. Furthermore, ultimate tower loads and damage equivalent loads on shaft and blades are decreased. Although more detailed testing is necessary, this preliminary results show the advantages of nonlinear model predictive control for floating wind turbines.
