  • Publication number: 20240060473
    Abstract: A method for setting a fully or partially built wind power installation having a rotor having a plurality of rotor blades whose blade angle can be adjusted, wherein the wind power installation can take on variable operating situations, and each operating situation is characterized by a combination of settable installation settings of the wind power installation and environmental conditions that can be captured, with the result that an operating situation can be set for given environmental conditions by setting the installation settings, and operating situations that should be avoided and/or suitable operating situations are stored in a memory by storing a combination of environmental conditions and installation settings as a combination to be avoided for an operating situation that should be avoided in each case, and/or storing a combination of environmental conditions and installation settings as a suitable combination for a suitable operating situation in each case, and, to avoid operating situations that s

  • Patent number: 11441538
    Abstract: A wind turbine includes a tower, an aerodynamic rotor operable at a variable rotor speed and having a plurality of rotor blades each having an adjustable rotor blade setting angle and a generator for generating an electrical output power. An operating characteristic curve is prespecified for operating the wind turbine. The operating characteristic curve indicates a relationship between the rotor speed and the output power. A controller is provided, which sets the output power in accordance with the operating characteristic curve depending on the rotor speed. The the operating characteristic curve has a starting rotation speed to which the rotor speed increases as soon as the wind turbine starts when a sufficient wind speed is reached. The starting rotation speed is defined depending on a tower natural frequency of the wind turbine and/or depending on a detected turbulence measure of the prevailing wind.
