Damping an oscillatory movement of a nacelle of a wind turbine

摘要

A method is provided for damping an oscillatory movement of a nacelle of a wind turbine. The nacelle is attached to a tower of the wind turbine. The method involves rotating the nacelle about a yawing axis with a yawing speed, the yawing axis being aligned with a longitudinal axis of the tower, changing the yawing speed, and coordinating the yawing speed with the oscillatory movement such that a torque resulting from the change of the yawing speed damps the oscillatory movement of the nacelle of the tower.
