Coherent Design of Wind Turbine Controllers Considering Transitions between Operating Regions using Fuzzy Membership Functions
<|reference_start|>Coherent Design of Wind Turbine Controllers Considering Transitions between Operating Regions using Fuzzy Membership Functions: This paper presents a coherent design of wind turbine controllers with explicit consideration of transitions between operating regions by fuzzy membership functions. In improving the design process of wind turbines, the transitions between partial-load operation by torque control and full-load operation by pitch control need to be systematically considered. From the first view, fuzzy methods for blending separately designed control laws are an obvious choice. However, valid design rules must be developed to ensure stability and performance during the transition. A model-based control design procedure in the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy framework using the sector nonlinearity method is proposed to achieve the above control design objectives. In addition to a detailed mathematical analysis of the design, the method's applicability is verified by simulation studies using a high-fidelity reference wind turbine model.<|reference_end|>
