METHOD FOR MEASURING AND CONTROLLING OSCILLATIONS IN A WIND TURBINE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for measuring and controlling oscillations in a wind turbine wherein the wind turbine control system is adapted by means of spectrum analysis, to determine the existence and amplitude of vibrations of the wind turbine rotor blades and/or other structural vibrations on the basis of existing sensor/transducer signals relating to the characteristics of the electrical power output. The control system of the wind turbine is adapted to attenuate the oscillations before they reach an unacceptable level, and thereafter to cause the wind turbine to resume normal operation.
