Patent number: 11073133Abstract: A method for controlling the operation of a wind turbine may generally include monitoring a current yaw position of a nacelle of the wind turbine, wherein the current yaw position is located within one of a plurality of yaw sectors defined for the nacelle. In addition, the method may include monitoring a wind-dependent parameter of the wind turbine and determining a variance of the wind-dependent parameter over time, wherein the variance is indicative of variations in a wind parameter associated with the wind turbine. Moreover, the method may include determining at least one curtailed operating setpoint for the wind turbine when the variance exceeds a predetermined variance threshold, wherein the curtailed operating setpoint(s) is determined based at least in part on historical wind data for the yaw sector associated with the current yaw position.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2014Date of Patent: July 27, 2021Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Danian Zheng, Shuang Gu, Veronica Hernandez-Ortiz, Xiongzhe Huang, David Forrest Loy, Ramy Michael Souri
