Abstract

Vibrations occur in the wind turbine drivetrain due to the drivetrain’s elasticity and gear clearance. Typically, the PID control method is used to suppress elastic vibration, while the method with the disturbance suppression function is used to suppress nonlinear gear clearance vibration. The purpose of this paper is to propose an equivalent PID control method based on the internal model control (IMC) for suppressing vibration caused by the wind turbine drivetrain’s elasticity and gear clearance. The equivalent PID controller can suppresses elastic vibration; the IMC controller can suppresses gear clearance vibration. First, the vibration principle of the two-mass wind turbine drivetrain with clearance is discussed. After analyzing the nonlinear characteristics of the gear clearance, the nonlinear clearance system is decomposed into a linear unit and a nonlinear bounded disturbance unit. To suppress nonlinear bounded disturbances, a disturbance suppression method based on IMC is proposed; simultaneously, an equivalent PID controller based on IMC is designed to resolve the vibration issue caused by the wind turbine drivetrain’s elasticity. The simulation experimental results show that the clearance vibration is suppressed by the original IMC method. The PID controller obtained by the IMC equivalent transformation can suppress the elastic vibration.
