Abstract
In this paper we consider wind turbine load
attenuation through model based control. Asymmetric loads
caused by the wind field can be reduced by pitching the blades
individually. To this end we investigate the use of stochastic
models of the wind which can be included in a model based
individual pitch controller design. In this way the variability
of the wind can be estimated and compensated for by the
controller. The wind turbine model is in general time-variant
due to its rotational nature. For this reason the modeling and
control is carried out in so-called multiblade coordinates. The
individual pitch controller design in investigated in simulations.
