Abstract

A method for determining parameters of a wind turbine is disclosed. The method may generally include receiving signals from at least one Micro Inertial Measurement Unit (MIMU) mounted on or within a component of the wind turbine and determining at least one parameter of the wind turbine based on the signals received from the at least one MIMU.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims the priority of the patent application No. 201110141198.1 with the title "Wind Turbine and Method for Determining Parameters of Wind Turbine" submitted to the Chinese Patent Office on May 27, 2011, the disclosure of which is for all purposes by reference incorporated into this article. technical field [0003] The present subject matter relates generally to wind turbines, and more specifically, to determining parameters of wind turbines using Micro Inertial Measurement Unit (MIMU) sensors. Background technique [0004] Wind turbines are complex machines that convert kinetic energy in the wind into electrical power. When operating a wind turbine, some parameters of the wind turbine (such as blade pitch, blade rotational speed, yaw, rotor speed, generator rotational speed, and structural vibration) need to be monitored for controlling the wind turbine to be more stable. [0005] In order to monitor parameters of a ...
