Abstract

Theoretical modeling and vibration control for divergent motion of thin-walled pre-twisted wind turbine blade have been investigated based on “linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller using loop transfer recovery (LTR) at plant input” (LLI). The blade section is a single-celled composite structure with symmetric layup configuration of circumferentially uniform stiffness (CUS), exhibiting displacements of vertical/lateral bending coupling. Flutter suppression for divergent instability is investigated, with blade driven by nonlinear aerodynamic forces. Theoretical modeling of CUS-based structure is implemented based on Hamilton variational principle of elasticity theory. The discretization of aeroelastic equations is solved by Galerkin method, with blade tip responses demonstrated. The LLI controller is characterized by LTR at the plant input. The effects of LLI controller are achieved and illustrated by displacement responses, controller responses and frequency spectrum analysis, respectively.
