In this paper, a model predictive control (MPC) is proposed for wind farms to minimize wake-induced power losses. A constrained optimization problem is formulated to maximize the total power production of a wind farm. The developed controller employs a two-dimensional dynamic win ...
As the diameters of wind turbine rotors increase, the loads across the rotors are becoming more uneven due to inhomogeneous wind fields. Therefore, more advanced passive or active load reduction techniques are introduced to mitigate these uneven loads. Furthermore, measuring the ...
In this paper, an adjoint-based model predictive control (AMPC) is proposed in order to provide active power control (APC) services of wind farms, even in the presence of problematic wake interactions. The control objective is defined to minimize wind farm power reference trackin ...

Adjoint-based model predictive control of wind farms

Beyond the quasi steady-state power maximization

In this paper, we extend our closed-loop optimal control framework for wind farms to minimize wake-induced power losses. We develop an adjoint-based model predictive controller which employs a medium-fidelity 2D dynamic wind farm model. The wind turbine axial induction factors ar ...
This paper proposes an adjoint-based model predictive control for optimal energy extraction of wind farms. It employs the axial induction factor of wind turbines to influence their aerodynamic interactions through the wake. The performance index is defined here as the total power ...
