Patent number: 11867153Abstract: A method and device for controlling output power in a primary frequency modulation process of a wind turbine are provided by the present disclosure. The method includes predicting a rotational speed of the wind turbine; determining frequency modulation remaining time based on the predicted rotational speed, the frequency modulation remaining time being time for which the wind turbine is able to continue to output frequency modulation power as the output power used for the primary frequency modulation without affecting a recovery of the wind turbine after the primary frequency modulation; controlling the output power based on the determined frequency modulation remaining time.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2021Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: BEIJING GOLDWIND SCIENCE & CREATION WINDPOWER EQUIPMENT CO., LTD.Inventors: Peter Fogh Odgaard, Mengting Yu

Patent number: 10767628Abstract: The invention relates to control of a wind turbine comprising a plurality of multi-axial accelerometers mounted at different positions in the nacelle and/or in a top portion of the tower. The position and orientation of each accelerometer as mounted is obtained, accelerations in at least two different directions by each accelerometer are measured during operation of the wind turbine. From a number of predetermined mode shapes for the movement of the wind turbine is then determined an absolute position of at least one of the accelerometers during operation of the wind turbine based on the measured accelerations, the mount position and orientation of each accelerometer and the pre-determined mode shapes. Hereby a more precise absolute position during operation is obtained which can be used in the controlling of the turbine.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 2017Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: Vestas Wind Systems A/SInventors: Tobias Gybel Hovgaard, Johnny Nielsen, Peter Fogh Odgaard

Patent number: 10731632Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a control of a wind turbine in connection with power boosting or fast increase of active power production. A boost command is received (63) and based on the current operational state and the boost level a predicted control trajectory is calculated using a model predictive control (MPC) routine (64). The wind turbine is controlled using the calculated control trajectory during the power boost (65).Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2016Date of Patent: August 4, 2020Assignee: VESTAS WIND SYSTEMS A/SInventors: Tobias Gybel Hovgaard, Peter Fogh Odgaard

Publication number: 20130038060Abstract: A method for controlling a wind power park including the steps of: collecting information relating to meteorological conditions at the location of the wind power park, estimating for each of a plurality of the wind turbines the production costs per unit energy at different load levels of the respective wind turbine, collecting information from a utility grid operator relating to energy prices and possible requirements relating to the amount of power delivered from the wind power park to the utility grid, controlling the wind power park by deciding on a total amount of power to be delivered from the wind power park and distributing the decided power production between individual wind turbines, and repeating the above steps in order to obtain a dynamic control of the wind power park. Further, a wind power park being controlled by such method is disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2012Publication date: February 14, 2013Inventors: Peter Fogh Odgaard, Paul Bach Thogersen
