Abstract

A novel non-centralised dispatch strategy is presented for wake redirection to optimise large-scale offshore wind farms operation, creating a balanced control between power production and fatigue thrust loads evenly among the wind turbines. This approach is founded on a graph sparsification partitioning strategy that takes into account the impact of wake propagation. More specifically, the breadth-first search algorithm is employed to identify the subgraph based on the connectivity of the wake direction graph, while the PageRank centrality computation algorithm is utilised to determine and rank scores for the shared turbines’ affiliation with the subgraphs. By doing so, the wind farm is divided into smaller subsets of partitioned turbines, resulting in decoupling. The objective function is then formulated by incorporating penalty terms, specifically the standard deviation of fatigue thrust loads, into the maximum power equation. Meanwhile, the non-centralisation sequential quadratic programming optimisation algorithm is subsequently employed within each partition to determine the control actions while considering the objectives of the respective controllers. Finally, the simulation results of case studies prove to reduce computational costs and improve wind farm power production by balancing accumulated fatigue thrust loads over the operational lifetime as much as possible.
