In an RL-based control system, the turbine (or wind farm) controller is realized as an agent that observes the state of the ...

A numerical optimization scheme was developed for the calculation of optimum pitch control laws for straight bladed Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT). It is shown that the optimum pitch control law ...

Engineers at Moog Inc. and wind turbine maker Made Tecnologias Renovables SA have produced a pitch control servo valve that governs blade pitch while eliminating external controls. The valve provides ...

A new control algorithm for wind farms that alters how individual turbines are oriented into the wind promises to boost farms' overall efficiency and energy output by optimizing how they deal with ...

(Nanowerk News) The blades of propellers and wind turbines are designed based on aerodynamics principles that were first described mathematically more than a century ago. But engineers have long ...

Similar to how a young sunflower follows the sun to catch the light, wind turbines turn to face the wind to maximize the energy they produce. Although you probably haven’t noticed it happening, the ...

New algorithm forces turbines in wind farms to be team players, boosting energy output overall. A new control algorithm for wind farms that alters how individual turbines are oriented into the wind ...
