AI Technical Summary
Conventional methods for controlling wake interactions in wind parks do not consistently optimize power output and load management in wind turbines, particularly due to limited pitch actuation capabilities.
Implementing movable aerodynamic devices on wind turbine blades, such as flaps, spoilers, micro tabs, and vortex generators, to actively control airflow and deflect wakes, using a controller to manage their configuration based on blade position and wind conditions.
Enhances Annual Energy Production (AEP) by accelerating wake recovery and reducing load impact on downstream turbines through strategic activation of aerodynamic devices, optimizing power and load distribution.
