Samenvatting

The control system design for a wind power plant is investigated. Both theoverall wind farm control and the individual wind turbine control effect thewind farm dynamic performance.For a wind turbine with a synchronous generator and rectifier/invertersystem a multivariable controller is designed. Using the optimal outputfeedback method a compromise is found between speed, power fluctuations andmechanical load. Nonlinear simulations show the superior performance comparedto a classical control design.Preliminary results for the overall wind farm control show that thecompensation of aerodynamic interactions between the wind turbines for energymaximisation is beneficial. Load control is even more important, especially incombination with wind prediction models.
