Consider the inside of a typical wind turbine nacelle. It will contain a gearbox, electrical controls, a generator, hub mounting, blade controls, and several other major systems. In the case of ...

Each year a panel reviews papers nominated from the past two years and selects an article of high significance. The paper, published in 2022, describes the first experimental implementation of Model ...

In an RL-based control system, the turbine (or wind farm) controller is realized as an agent that observes the state of the ...

Wind Engineering, Vol. 44, No. 5 (October 2020), pp. 483-493 (11 pages) Wind farm control has demonstrated power production improvements using yaw-based wake steering compared to individual turbine ...

Wind Engineering, Vol. 45, No. 5 (October 2021), pp. 1206-1221 (16 pages) In this paper, a theory and practice-based research is conducted using real data, in order to increase the efficiency of a ...

With over 350,000 wind turbines currently in use globally, wind continues to be one of the fastest growing forms of renewable energy. In 2021, 93.6 GW of new installations brought global cumulative ...

In order for wind turbines to function effectively across wide ranges of wind conditions, you’ll need what’s known as blade pitch control. Lucy Pao, the Palmer Endowed Chair Professor in the ...
