    Description

    A floating wind turbine controller requires control of the blade pitch angles and generator torque under wave and wind conditions, without exciting any eigenmodes. This master’s thesis, which is a collaboration between DTU and GustoMSC, researches wind turbine control for eigenmodes of the floater and tower of a tri-floater offshore wind turbine. A control strategy is developed which does not interfere with floater rigid body modes and additionally ‘skips’ the operating range near this 1st towermode - also referred to as resonance bridging – while having minimal impact on energy yield and structural response of the system. This control strategy is made using the ROSCO controller.
