摘要:
The invention relates to a method for damping tower oscillations in the tower of an active stall controlled wind turbine. The method comprises the steps of operating two or more blades of the wind turbine in a stall condition, detecting if the tower oscillates beyond a predefined level, and establishing different stall conditions between at least two of the blades, wherein the different stall conditions are established by offsetting the pitch angle of at least a first blade in relation to the pitch angle of one further blade. The invention further relates to an active stall controlled wind turbine and use hereof.
摘要:
Damping of oscillations of the first bending mode of a wind turbine is performed means of one or more containers partly filled with a liquid for damping oscillations of the first natural bending frequency of the wind turbine. The damping means comprises a plurality of box shaped containers having a square cross section and being partly filled with liquid so as to provide a unidirectional damping with a logarithmic decrement of oscillations of the first natural bending frequency of the wind turbine of at least 4-8%. For off-shore wind turbines, the combined excitation of the wind and sea waves requires more damping, the damping is preferably equivalent to a logarithmic decrement of 10-15%. Furthermore, the invention relates to damping of oscillation of the second bending mode of a wind turbine and to the combined damping of oscillations of the first as well as the second bending mode of the wind turbine.
