Conventional wind turbine smart control and power enhancement with load reduction mainly rely on feedback control systems. These systems control the yaw mechanism by estimating the wind speed based on the rotor speed to improve wind energy utilization efficiency. However, due to the instability and randomness of wind speed, as well as the turbulence caused by upstream turbines, this control method experiences variable and unstable wind measurements, which can accelerate the wear and aging of the yaw gearbox.
By deeply integrating the nacelle LiDAR with the feedback control system, precise prediction and real-time response of wind speed within a range of 400 meters or even 800 meters ahead of the turbine are achieved. This enables optimization of the turbine’s yaw control, ensuring that the turbine maintains the optimal wind-facing position, thereby enhancing wind energy conversion efficiency and long-term operational stability.
Custom development for different turbine models to meet the specific needs of various customers.
Continuous and stable operation in harsh onshore and offshore environments.
The nacelle lidar adopts a compact structural design, featuring a small size, light weight, and ease of installation on the wind turbine nacelle. It has low power consumption, supports quick installation, and is compatible with multiple data interfaces.
It is capable of accurately measuring wind speed and wind direction over a wide area in front of the turbine, with high data accuracy.
Equipped with advanced algorithms, it automatically identifies and filters out the blockage of the laser beam caused by the rotor's rotation, ensuring the continuity and reliability of the measurement data.
