If wind speed was constant, the wind turbine will be operating perfectly stable at a certain point of its operational curve. The point would be dependent of the magnitude of that perfectly constant wind speed. However, the wind stubbornly insists on changing its value and being turbulent, and that makes the turbine “fall off” its operational curve. This is where Dynamic Control comes into play.

Dynamic Control is a set of mathematical equations, implemented in the main PLC of the turbine in the form of algorithms that continuously regulate the state of the operational variables of the turbine such as blade pitch angle and generator reaction torque.

It is called Dynamic Control because the controller includes which value changes dynamically over time. These values are modified in response to changes in the wind speed, which create changes in the torque developed by the rotor and in the torque experienced by the different wind turbine structural elements, such as blades and tower. MLS delivers the most advanced control algorithms, available adjusting operational variable values to obtain the right input torque to generate the required power output, while at the same time minimizing the loads on those structural values. To carry out its functions, the Dynamic Controller needs to have information on the overall dynamic behavior of the machine.

With MLS Controllers, open and transparent control algorithms can be delivered as code and Simulink block diagrams.

MLS maintains a "full-knowledge transfer policy" to ensure all projects include programmed learning sessions for customers.
