Abstract

The invention relates to a wind turbine and a control method for controlling the same. The wind turbine (1) is provided with a rotor (4) rotatable about a rotor axis (A) and having a plurality of blades (7) rotatably fitted to a hub (6) about a blade axis (B) and a plurality of pitch actuators (8) for adjusting the pitch angles of the blades (7); a brake (9) controlled by a brake actuator (10) for arresting the rotor (4); a rotating electric machine (5) connected to the rotor (4); an inverter (11) for controlling the rotating electric machine (5); and a control system (22) configured to emit control signals for selectively controlling at least one of pitch actuators (8); the brake actuator (10); and the inverter (11) as a function of the deformations retrieved by means of a plurality of image reflection measuring devices (24) configured for detecting the deformations of each blade (7).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wind turbine. In particular, the invention relates to a wind turbine comprising a control system for controlling the wind turbine and to a method for controlling the wind turbine. Background technique [0002] Generally, a wind turbine includes a vertical support structure; a nacelle on top of the support structure; a rotor rotatably fitted to the nacelle, and the rotor includes a hub, a plurality of blades rotatably fitted to the hub, and Multiple helical actuators for adjusting the pitch angle (pitch angle) of the blades. Typically, the wind turbine is controlled according to a control strategy based on one or more measured control parameters (eg wind speed, wind direction, etc.). Therefore, a control system for controlling the operation of a wind turbine is usually connected to one or more sensors, each sensor being arranged to measure a particular ambient condition, such as wind speed. However, measurements of physical...
