    摘要: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for automatically calibrating a load sensor system of a wind turbine and determining health of same. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving a plurality of sensor signals generated by the plurality of load sensors from the load sensor system. The method also includes determining, via a computer model, a load estimation of the wind turbine based on the sensor signals, turbine geometry, and one or more additional input parameters (e.g. rotor azimuth angle, pitch angle, rotor position, etc.). Another step includes comparing the load estimation to a load measurement to determine one or more correlation coefficients. Thus, the method also includes calibrating the plurality of sensors in the load sensor system based on the correlation coefficients.

    摘要: A method and system for controlling a wind turbine generator detect wind speeds and, at a first defined wind speed, control generator torque and generator rotational speed to achieve a pre-defined power for the wind turbine generator at the first defined wind speed. As wind speed increases beyond the first defined wind speed, one of generator torque or generator rotational speed is increased and the other of generator rotational speed or generator torque is proportionally decreased to maintain the generator power substantially constant at the pre-defined power.

    摘要: The present subject matter is directed to a system and method for dynamically controlling a wind turbine. The method includes operating the wind turbine based on a thrust set point and a speed set point. A next step includes determining a desired change in actual speed of the wind turbine in response to control actuations starting from an instantaneous operating point. The method also includes determining a desired change in thrust of the wind turbine in response to control actuations starting from the instantaneous operating point. Next, the method determines at least one parameter set point that achieves the desired change in speed and the desired change in thrust and controls the wind turbine based on the parameter set point so as to maintain the actual thrust and the actual speed of the wind turbine within a certain tolerance of the thrust set point and the speed set point, thereby regulating loads acting on the wind turbine while simultaneously maintaining optimal or near optimal power output.
