Adaptive neuro-fuzzy algorithm to estimate effective wind speed and optimal rotor speed for variable-speed wind turbine

The precise measurement of effective wind speed is a crucial task and has huge impact on wind turbine output power, safety and control performance. In this study, a hybrid intelligent learning based adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is proposed for online estimation of effective wind speed from instantaneous values of wind turbine tip speed ratio (TSR), rotor speed and mechanical power. The artificial neural network (ANN) adjusts the...
