Abstract

To enable wind turbines to produce power under great variety of wind conditions a sophisticated control system is needed. Wind turbine system is highly nonlinear system and its dynamic changes rapidly with the change of wind speed. Many classical control methods fail to properly address this uncertainty of wind turbine dynamics. For that reason the Quantitative Feedback Theory is presented and its application to synthesis of rotor speed controller explained.
