  • Patent number: 11365715
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for estimating systematic yaw misalignment of a wind turbine. The method comprising the steps of: receiving yaw data from the wind turbine indicative of the degrees of rotation of the nacelle for a plurality of yaw operations; receiving performance data from the wind turbine indicative of the alignment of the nacelle of the wind turbine with the wind direction before and after each of the plurality of yaw operations. The yaw data and the performance data being recorded during normal operation of the wind turbine, and the yaw data and the performance data is processed together to estimate the systemic yaw misalignment of the wind turbine.

  • Patent number: 6840734
    Abstract: A method of controlling the speed of rotation of a turbine, the turbine comprising a rotor, the method comprising the steps of measuring or estimating power or torque related to the energy production of the turbine, processing the measured or estimated power or torque so as to obtain a corresponding rotational speed, comparing the obtained rotational speed to a first predefined threshold value and to a second predefined threshold value, the second predefined threshold value being larger than the first predefined threshold value, and controlling the speed of rotation of the rotor according to the obtained rotational speed, so as to obtain a predetermined energy production from the turbine, and in such a way that in case the obtained rotational speed does not exceed the first predefined threshold value, the predetermined energy production from the turbine is optimal, in case the obtained rotational speed exceeds the first predefined threshold value, but does not exceed the second predefined threshold value, the
