Wind turbine with a speed regulator and a generator regulator
A wind turbine having a rotor, which has at least one rotor blade adjustable about its longitudinal axis via a pitch control, and a generator, driven by the rotor, having a speed regulator, which takes a control difference in the rotational speed and generates a control variable for the pitch control, and a generator regulator, which takes a power conductance and determines a rotational speed setpoint and a power setpoint, wherein a pilot control is provided that uses an inverse controlled system to determine a control variable for the pitch control, the inverse controlled system determining a power torque (MP) from the rotational speed setpoint and the power setpoint and also an acceleration torque (MB) from the change in the rotational speed setpoint over time and outputting the control variable for the pitch control as an output variable that provides pilot control for the output variable from the speed regulator.
1. A wind turbine comprising:
a rotor having at least one rotor blade defining a longitudinal axis;
a pitch control;
said at least one rotor blade being adjustable about said longitudinal axis via said pitch control;
a generator configured to be driven by said rotor;
a speed regulator configured to generate a control variable (dpitFF/dt) for controlling the pitch of said rotor blade from a control difference in rpm;
a ramp function (P_Ramp) and a further downstream rotational speed ramp configured to determine a rotational speed setpoint (nS) and a power setpoint (PS) from a power reference value (PL);
a feedforward controller for determining said control variable (dpitFF/dt) for said pitch control;
said feedforward controller being configured to determine a power torque (M P ) from said rotational speed setpoint (nS) and said power setpoint (PS) and to determine an acceleration torque (M B ) from a time dependent change of said rotational speed setpoint (nS); and,
said feedforward controller being further configured to output said control variable (dpitFF/dt) for said pitch control as an output variable which is added to a pitch speed (dpit_n/dt) and applied to an integrator (PitInt) configured to output an output signal, wherein said output signal of said integrator (PitInt) is a pitch angle to be set on the wind turbine.
2. The wind turbine of claim 1 further comprising:
a drive train; and,
said feedforward controller being configured such that power drawn by said rotor is sufficient at least to provide said power setpoint (PS) and an acceleration of said drive train.
3. The wind turbine of claim 1 , wherein said control variable (dpitFF/dt) for said pitch control corresponds to an adjustment speed for a blade pitch angle.
4. The wind turbine of claim 3 , wherein said control variable (dpitFF/dt) for said pitch control corresponds to an adjustment angle for said blade pitch angle.
5. The wind turbine of claim 1 , wherein a time dependent change rate is determined for a sum of said power torque (M P ) and said acceleration torque (M B ) which is applied to an amplification to determine the control variable (dpitFF/dt) to be outputted for said pitch control.
