摘 要：This chapter proposes a methodology to design robust control strategies for wind turbines. The designed controllers are robust, multivariable and multi-objective to guarantee the required levels of stability and performance considering the coupling of the wind turbine. The proposed robust controllers generate collective pitch angle, individual pitch angle and generator torque control signals to regulate the electrical power production in the above rated power production zone and to mitigate the loads in the components of the wind turbines, like the drive train, tower, hub or blades, to increase their lifetime. The synthesis of these controllers is based on the H_∞ norm reduction and gain scheduling control techniques via Linear Matrix Inequalities. A wind turbine non-linear model has been developed in the GH Bladed software package and it is based on a 5 MW wind turbine defined in the Upwind European project. The family of linear models extracted from the linearization process of the non-linear model is used to design the proposed robust controllers. The designed controllers have been validated in GH Bladed and an exhaustive analysis has been carried out to calculate fatigue load reduction on wind turbine components, as well as to analyze load mitigation in some extreme cases.
