Abstract

This invention proposes a wind turbine pitch angle control method based on dynamic changes in wind speed and direction, relating to the field of motor control. The method includes: building a turbine operation database using simulated turbine operating data; constructing a multi-objective optimization function with power generation efficiency and load as objectives; performing offline training based on the operating database and the multi-objective optimization function to generate a three-dimensional parameter table of wind speed, yaw error, and pitch angle; and optimizing the offline-generated three-dimensional parameter table online through linear iteration to obtain the optimal pitch angle under different wind speeds and yaw errors. This invention effectively solves the problem of pitch control lacking dynamic response to wind speed and direction, enabling coordinated optimization of turbine power generation efficiency and load, avoiding a singular control objective, reducing the frequency of pitch operations, decreasing fatigue load on the pitch bearings, and increasing turbine lifespan.
