A method of controlling operation of a turbine comprises setting a value of optimal mode gain for turbine operation, monitoring (36) one or more of a plurality of sensors, or other data sources and determining a change in data received from the one or more sensors, or the other data sources. Values are obtained (38) for one or more control parameters from stored data in response to the change in data received from the one or more sensors, or other data sources and the value of optimal mode gain set is modified (39) according to the obtained values. In operation the recalculated optimal mode gain is used by the controller to change the generator torque to ensure maximum power coefficient is achieved in the operating conditions identified. The controller may monitor data input to determine further changes in operating conditions and to allow torque to be further adjusted. |
