In this paper, vibration control problem in tension leg platform offshore wind turbines is investigated. First a non-linear model of the wind turbine is obtained. Six degrees of freedom are considered in the model including surge, heave and pitch of the platform, tower fore-aft vibrations, rotor rotation and drivetrain torsional vibration. Moreover all external loads acting on the offshore wind turbine such as aerodynamic loads, hydrodynamic loads and mooring line forces are taken into account. To achieve an accurate model of the wind turbine, tower and drivetrain are modelled as flexible components. The model output is compared with FAST simulator; a popular open source software for modeling wind turbines. Then, a robust controller is designed to regulate rotor speed and output power, increase wind turbine efficiency and attenuate tower fore-aft vibration. The controller is implemented on the non-linear dynamic model to investigate the closed loop performance.

In recent years, there has been an increasing tendency to use wind energy. Deep water with the depth of more than 30m has great deal of wind power, for instance the energy potential for winds between 10 to 100 Km offshore in USA is estimated to be more than 900 GW [1]. Floating wind turbines have three main configurations: spar-buoy platform, tension leg platform (TLP) and barge platform. Tension leg platform offshore wind turbines (OWT) are the most promising type to extract wind power available in these areas [2].

Offshore wind turbines are non-linear and complex systems affected by various loads including weight, wind disturbances, gyroscopic and centrifugal forces. Moreover OWT aerodynamics is non-linear and non-uniform. Due to these reasons, mathematical models are too difficult to obtain. Despite the importance of simple models

for controller synthesis, accurate models should consist of too many DOFs to involve significant dynamic phenomena [3].

There are two kinds of dynamic models used for controller synthesis in recent researches: 1) models which are simplified and consist of a few DOFs, so some physical phenomena are neglected. 2) Models which are obtained from FAST simulator. FAST models are non-linear and very complicated and computationally expensive[4]. Hence deriving a simple and accurate model suitable for controller design is still an interesting field for study.

Some researches in the field of OWT design benefit from linear modeling in frequency domain. Lee used linear hydrodynamic equations in frequency domain for computing vibration amplitude of 6 motion modes of floating platforms such as tension leg and spar buoy types [5]. Wayman et al. used the same process for analyzing 5 MW TLP and spar buoy wind turbines [6, 7].

Handerson and Patel assess 700 KW wind turbine motions and the effects of platform motions on fatigue loads by using frequency domain analysis. They showed platform motions affect generator and tower loads, but they are less effective than rotor dynamics on the captured power and the rotor loads [8]. Fulton and Withee et al. found similar results [9, 10].

Betti et al. modelled OWT as a whole rigid body with 4 DOFs including surge, heave and pitch of the platform and rotor rotation. This model is suitable for maximizing output power but it is not appropriate for goals such as blades and tower vibration attenuation. They used H control technique for rotor speed regulation [11, 12].

Jonckman deployed collective blade pitch PI gain scheduled (GS) controller on barge type platform [13]. Christiansen et al. considered misalignment between wind and wave. The main idea is to use GS LQR based on the estimation of wind speed and wave frequency [14].

Lackner implemented individual blade pitch (IBP) PID controller to reduce blades loads, however he found that this method was not as effective at reducing blade loads when compared to onshore WT [15, 16].

Erwin et al. demonstrated the effectiveness of blade pitch control experimentally. They implemented collective blade pitch control to reduce tower fore-aft vibration and the IBP control to reduce rotary parts’ loads [17].

Jafarnejadsani and Peeper modelled WT drivetrain and used L optimal control method [18].

Output power maximization and structural vibration attenuation play crucial roles in reducing electricity production costs, maintenance and increasing WT life. To achieve these objectives, controller should be synthesized based on an accurate dynamic model. The WT components that are actually flexible should be modeled as flexible components to improve recent relevant studies. One of these components is the tower that allocates a large part of production cost (depending on the installation and operation conditions, it is estimated that more than 30% of WT cost is allocated to the tower). Obviously tower vibration can be controlled and consequently manufacturing cost can be reduced by modelling tower more accurately. Drivetrain torsional vibration should also be considered to prevent its unwanted motions. So drivetrain should be modeled as a distinct flexible component.

In the first part of the paper, the non-linear model of a 5 MW tension leg platform wind turbine is derived which is appropriate for controller synthesis and implementation. The proposed model consists of 6 degrees of freedom including surge, heave and pitch of the platform, first bending mode of the tower, the rotor rotation and the drivetrain torsion. Tower and drivetrain modeled as flexible components. Control inputs are blade pitch angle and generator torque.

In the second part of the paper, H controller is designed based on the proposed model in the above rated wind speed region. In addition to the inherent robustness properties of this controller, it can reduce disturbance and noise effects on the system. In the above rated wind speed region, the wind speed is almost in the range of 10 to 22 m/s, the captured wind energy should be limited in order to avoid dangerous mechanical and electrical loads. In this study controller design is carried out with the aim of rotor speed regulation and tower vibration attenuation.

The remainder of this paper is organized as follows: in section II mathematical model of offshore wind turbine is described based on Lagrange method. Dynamic modelling simulation and their validations are presented in section III. In section IV the H control technique is introduced. Simulation results of H controller performance are presented in section V. Conclusion is given in section VI.

  • 2.    Wind Turbine Non-Linear Model

Dynamic equations of an OWT can be derived using Lagrange method. The equation of motion in Lagrange method is given by:

d dEkx  3Ek  dEd   d E p

— (—-)--- + —- + —p = Q.

dt d q i     d q i     d q i     d q i

Where Ek, Ep and Ed are kinetic, potential and dissipated energies and q is generalized coordinate and in this system is defined as q = {xp, yp ,9p ,9t ,9T ,9]} , which are surge, heave, pitch of the platform and fore-aft tower motion, rotor rotation and low speed shaft rotation respectively. Qi is generalized loads acting on the ith generalized coordinate.

The origin of coordinate system chosen for OWT modelling, is placed in the platform centroid in static equilibrium state, which is shown in Fig.1. cp , ctwr , cN and cr are centres of the mass of the platform, tower, nacelle and rotor respectively. Position vectors of these centres of mass should be computed in the presented coordinate system. Time derivatives of these vectors are velocity vectors. Now kinetic energy and potential energy due to gravity can be described in terms of velocity and position vectors. Because of the restrictions on the length of the paper, the detailed expression of the equations of motion is omitted in this paper.

  • 2.1.1.    Aerodynamic model

  • 2.1.1.1.    Drivetrain dynamic model

In this part, external forces and torques acting on the system are described. These loads include aerodynamic and hydrodynamic loads and mooring line forces.

Aerodynamic model explains the interaction between the wind and the wind turbine. The model is expresses the thrust forces and torques acting on the drivetrain. Before explaining aerodynamic model let us derive the mathematical model of the drivetrain.

Drivetrain includes generator, high speed shaft, gearbox, low speed shaft and rotor. Drivetrain DOFs are rotor and low speed shaft rotation. A schematic representation of the drivetrain model is depicted in Fig.2.

Fig.2. Wind Turbine Drivetrain

The governing equations of the drivetrain mathematical model are given by:

Taero = Jr θ r + kdrvtrn ( θ r - θ l ) + cdrvtrn ( θ r - θ l )

g g       g . g . l      drvtrn r      l       drvtrn r      l

Where T is the aerodynamic load given by:

T r = 1 πρ air r bld 3 C q ( λ , β ) v rel 2

C ( λ , β ) is the torque coefficient that is a function of the tip speed ratio (λ) and the blade pitch angle (β).

Tip speed ratio shows how much faster the tip of the blades travels than the wind at the rotor hub and it is computed by:

λ = rbld θ r vrel

v is the relative wind speed at the hub, given by:

vrel =dtcθpcos(θp)+hrtrθtcos(θt)-ovhng.θtsin(θt)+xp +vwind

2.1.1.2. Thrust force

It is assumed the wind speed is the same in all points of OWT and the thrust force computed based on 1-D approach for simplicity. Thrust force acting on the rotor is computed as follows [14]:

F t =- 1 πρ air r bld 2 C t ( λ , β ) v rel 2

Where C ( λ , β ) is the thrust coefficient, a function of tip speed ratio and the blade pitch angle, derived by curvefitting of Fourier transform series on the data collected in FAST simulator. For instance, the resulting thrust coefficient curve versus tip speed ratio in the blade pitch angles of 0, 5 and 9 degree is shown in Fig.3.

Fig.3. Thrust Coefficient Versus λ

The thrust force exerted on the tower is assumed to be a lumped force applied in the mass centre of the tower, given by:

Fitwr =-1 PC Г htwr dmeantwr ^(9) V,T + Vwind(8)

v twr is the relative wind speed in the centre of mass of the tower computed by:

^t* = dA cos(9p) + h^, cos(9) + Xp + v^(9)

Thrust force acting on the nacelle is computed as follows:

Vera = dA cos(9p)+ h„9, cos(A)+naccx9, sin(A)+xp + v^ind

  • 2.1.2.    Hydrodynamic model

  • 2.1.2.1.    Buoyancy force

Hydrodynamic model explain all forces acting on OWT due to interaction between the platform and its surrounding water. This model includes buoyancy, drag and wave forces which are described in the following sections.

According to Archimedes' principle, buoyancy force on a submerged object equals to the fluid weight which it displaces. Hence, the buoyant force as a function of time is obtained by:

Fb ( t ) = - P„fr . g . vol( t )

The volume of the submerged platform is given by:

vol = n .r pf. 2 .min((y p +h st ),h pf )

w here h is the platform height in the static equilibrium state. t he distance from the centroid of platform to the center of buoyancy force is given by:

min((y p +h st ),h pf )

2.1.2.2. Hydraulic Drag and wave thrust:

Due to the variable submerged platform height, wave thrust and drag forces are derived decomposing the cylindrical platform to n sub cylinders in y direction with the same cross section. For a submerged cylinder, drag force is computed by means of Morison equation. Drag force acting on the ith sub cylinder centroid is computed by equation (15), where ^d is relative velocity between the wave and the ith sub cylinder.

FDi = - 1 Cd P A ^ rel,

Thrust force due to relative acceleration between the wave and the ith sub cylinder is given by:

F.:  ( P w.r .vol+m)a i

Where m is the added mass and computed by identification in FAST simulator. Added mass is the effective increase in mass experienced by an immersed object in the fluid.

2.1.3. Moring line system

Mooring line system is made up of a series of cables connecting the platform to the sea bed. The tension in cables acts as restoring force against platform movements. It is assumed, there are three cables attached to the platform and each cable modelled as a linear spring. The pretension in each cable is calculated by solving the static equilibrium equation, cable tension is computed as follows:

f = (k сЬ , (l - l pre ) + F pre Xdi" l o ) )                                                                            (17)

Where l is the length of ith cable.

After obtaining the dynamic model of the OWT, a controller should be designed to improve the performance of the system. In this paper, control objectives are to regulate rotor speed and attenuate tower vibration in above rated wind speed region by adjusting the control inputs: generator torque and blade pitch angle {lg , в } .

In this section, a linear H controller will be design to guarantee robust asymptotic stability and achieve

control objectives. The H controller design method that is used in this work requires a linear plant. Hence, the nonlinear model of OWT is linearized in the wind speed of 11m/s for controller design purpose.

The control objectives in this paper are as follows:

  • 1)    Stability: the closed loop system is internally stable for nominal values of parameters.

  • 2)    Rotor speed regulation: to prevent excessive increase in the rotor speed, it should be limited.

  • 3)    Tower vibration attenuation: tower vibration should be decreased to increase stability and mechanical life of OWT structure.

Let us briefly describe the H controller synthesis method for a plant transfer function G(s) (Here, the plant transfer function is obtained by linearizing the OWT model between control inputs { Tg , в } and the controlled variables { ^,0r } ). Assume a controller transfer function K(s), sensitivity transfer function S(s) and complementary sensitivity transfer function T(s) are defined as:

5 (s) = (I+ G(s)K(s))-1                                                                                     (18)

T (s) = (I + G(s)K(s)) - 1 G (s)K(s)                                                                                   (19)

H controller, K(s), is a stabilizing controller that is the solution of the optimization problem:

min K (s)

W 1 (s)S(s)

W ( s ) K (s)S(s)

W 3 (s)T(s)

w

Where the infinity norm is defined as the maximum singular value of the given transfer matrix and weight function W (s) is a design parameters that should be chosen carefully to achieve control objectives.

Various methods have been proposed to solve the H controller synthesis problem (26). In this paper we use the well-known linear matrix inequality (LMI) method proposed in [22]. Due to the restriction on the length of the paper the LMI method is not explained here. Instead, we briefly discuss the weight functions and their selection criteria.

One of the control objectives is to reject the effects of wind and wave disturbance on OWT system. This objective can be achieved by decreasing the gain of the transfer function between the disturbances I v „ff^^m^A and the output vector ( ^ , # 1.

wind hydrodynamic tr

Another control objective is to use actuator as little as possible. In the other words, rotor speed should be tuned to a constant value by means of small usage of blade pitch angle, and meanwhile adjust output power to its nominal value and prevent unwanted loads applied to the drivetrain and the structure. So W ( s ) K (s)S(s) is introduced to limit the actuation and W (s) T(s) is used to reject noise. Here, the weight functions are chosen by trial and error as follows:

In this section, Simulation results are presented. First, the dynamic model of the OWT will be simulated in open-loop. The results will be compared with the response of a similar OWT in FAST. After validating the dynamic model, controller will be designed and the closed-loop simulations will be presented.

In this part, simulation results of derived non-linear model and FAST simulator are presented. For simulating in FAST, all DOFs available in this software are enabled. Simulations are carried out in a set of variable conditions to validate simplified model. Parameters used for OWT modelling are introduced in Table 1.

The first validation test is through constant inputs; v m^ = 11, в = 0, т = 10 kNm . Time series responses of the proposed nonlinear model versus FAST are shown in Fig.4. Responses show a similar trend for both models especially in low frequency. Note that the high frequency response is different that is not a great deal in our study because it is beyond the closed-loop bandwidth and will be vanished by the controller.

  • 4.2.    Linearization of the dynamic model

  • 4.3.    Closed-loop simulation

As stated earlier, the H controller design method used in this work requires a linear plant. Hence, the nonlinear model of OWT is linearized in the wind speed of 11m/s for controller design purpose. It should be verified that the linearized model represents the OWT with a good precision. Simulation results of linear and non-linear models can be compared in Fig.7. According to the results, the models have similar behavior in low frequency near equilibrium point.

Fig.7. Comparison of No-Linear and Linear Model Results

In this section, the closed-loop system consisting of the designed H controller and the non-linear model of OWT has been studied. The wind speed profile of Fig.5 has been applied to the system. The variations in control inputs (i.e. pitch angle and generator torque) are demonstrated in Fig.8. According to these figures, the mean value of blade pitch angle is 6 degree in this study which is much lower than in [11]. The generator torque is also regulated on its nominal value of 25 kN.m. Moreover control inputs fluctuations are very small which is of great importance in OWTs.

Fig.8. Control inputs :blade pitch angle , generator torque obtained using H controller

Trajectories of rotor speed, tower oscillation linear speed, pitch, surge and heave of the platform are shown in Fig.9. The proposed H controller outperforms the one in [11]. In all DOFs, fluctuations are much less than what reported in [11].

  • 5.    Conclusion

In this paper a non-linear model of tension leg platform offshore wind turbine is derived. Although this model is relatively simple and computationally inexpensive, all important physical phenomena are included in it. In the model, tower and drivetrain are modeled as flexible components, hence in total 6 DOFs including surge, heave and pitch of the platform, fore-aft tower vibration, rotor rotation and drivetrain torsion, aerodynamic, hydrodynamic loads and mooring line forces are considered; whereas previous studies have not considered these DOFs all together. The proposed model has been compared by FAST and validated. The advantage of our model over FAST model is its simplicity that makes it suitable for controller synthesis. A linear H controller is designed and implemented on the non-linear dynamic model in order to regulate rotor speed, attenuate tower fore-aft vibration and reduce variations in control input. The closed-loop simulations show a good performance that outperforms previous results.
