Dear all,
I am using the ROSCO controller to simulate a floating wind turbine. According to the above discussions, I downloaded the controller files DISCON_IEA_offshore, IEA-10.0-198-RWT_DISCON.IN and IEA-10.0-198-RWT_Cp_Ct_Cq.txt, applied them in the ServoDyn file and ran the simulation.
The question is that no matter I enable or disable the pitch control, the blade pitch angle came to be 90 after several seconds, and the power coefficient cp droped to about -1. Also, the power exceeds the rated power (10 MW), reaches to about 350MW, which is quite strange. I guess the power issue is related to the blade pitch error, but I cannot figure out what’s wrong with my input files. I also tried to change the wind speed or disable the inflow wind, but the problem was not solved.
The related results and the ServoDyn file is shown below. I would be appreciate if anyone could help to check and give any suggestions on this problem.
