About the Book

This book emphasizes the application of Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) gain scheduling techniques to the control of wind energy conversion systems. This reformulation of the classical problem of gain scheduling allows straightforward design procedure and simple controller implementation. From an overview of basic wind energy conversion, to analysis of common control strategies, to design details for LPV gain-scheduled controllers for both fixed- and variable-pitch, this is a thorough and informative monograph.

Table of Contents:
The Wind and Wind Turbines.- Modelling of Variable-speed Variable-pitch Wind Energy Conversion Systems.- Control Objectives and Strategies.- Control of Variable-speed Fixed-pitch Wind Turbines Using Gain Scheduling Techniques.- Control of Variable-speed Variable-pitch Wind Turbines Using Gain Scheduling Techniques.

About the Author :
Fernando D. Bianchi received the B.S. and Dr. Eng. degrees in electronic engineering from National University of La Plata, Argentina. He is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow of the National Research Council of Argentina (CONICET) at Laboratory of Industrial Electronics, Control and Instrumentation (LEICI), Electrical Engineering Department, National University of La Plata. His research interests include the application of gain scheduling techniques and robust control to wind energy systems. Refereed journal articles: 8; refereed articles in conference proceedings: 11. Hernan De Battista received the B.S. and Dr. Eng. degrees in Electronic Engineering from the National University of LaPlata, Argentina. He is currently Senior Professor of Electronics in the EE Dept. at the same university, and Research Member of the National Research Council of Argentina. His research interests are in the field of nonlinear control applications. He is particularly concerned with renewable energy control systems. Refereed journal articles: 18; refereed articles in conference proceedings: 21. Ricardo J. Mantz received his BSEE degree in Electronic Engineering from the National University of La Plata, Argentina in 1980. Since then, he has been with the Laboratory of Industrial Electronics Control and Instrumentation (LEICI) at the EE Dept., Faculty of Engineering, National University of La Plata, where he currently serves as Full Professor of Automatic Control. Professor Mantz is also a Research Member of the Scientific Research Commission (CICpBA). His primary area of interest is nonlinear control systems. Refereed journal articles: 42; refereed articles in conference proceedings: 59.

Review :
From the reviews: "The book in my hand is the first … completely dedicated to the control of wind energy systems; more precisely, it addresses a specific control design approach, the gain scheduling. … This monograph is addressed mainly to scientists from academia, but the reader can perceive its utility for industrials as well. … I feel that this book has achieved what the authors set out to do … ." (Iulian Munteanu, International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, Vol. 18, 2008) “The authors of Wind Turbine Control Systems are knowledgeable about the subject, having published several papers in this area … . Wind Turbine Control Systems provides a good introduction to wind energy for control engineers … . The target audience for this text is members of the control research community who are interested in wind energy applications. … provides an overview of wind turbines with an emphasis on various control objectives and LPV-based strategies for control.” (Kathryn E. Johnson, IEEE Control Systems Magazine, Vol. 27 (5), October, 2007)
