Inventor: ITO RYOSUKE
IPC: H02P9/00
Filed: 2010-05-28
Granted: 2014-03-20
Abstract: Provided is a wind power generation control device that controls a wind power generator that uses wind turbine blades having a fixed pitch angle. Said control device measures an output current and output voltage being outputted by the wind power generator, and the rotational speed of the wind turbine blades. On the basis of the measured present output current, output voltage, and rotational speed, the control device computes the output power at the rotational speed at that point in time, and controls the wind power generator on the basis of the computed output power and blade aerodynamic properties, which are properties inherent to the wind turbine blades. This makes it possible, in comparatively low wind-speed regions, to efficiently obtain the optimum amount of power corresponding to the wind speed. Also provided is a wind power generation control method for controlling the aforementioned wind power generator.
