Title
Intelligent Hybrid Controllers for the Blade Angle of Floating Wind Turbines
Abstract
Control of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) is complex due to the size of these turbines, the heavy loads they are subjected to, and their strongly nonlinear dynamics. Moreover, the control action of the turbine may influence the stability of the floating device. In this paper, two hybrid controllers are designed for the pitch control of a floatingwind turbine: a PI controlwith a lookup table, and an intelligent fuzzy controller. The latter also implements the wind speed-pitch angle relationship in a fuzzy way. The control objective is to reduce the vibration of the floating device without compromising the output power. Both controllers have been validated with the benchmark provided by the wind turbine simulation software FAST, obtaining better results. In addition, the effects of these different control strategies on the structure vibrations are analyzed.
