In this paper, a novel data-driven control algorithm based on model-free adaptive control is presented, addressing general discrete-time single-input single-output nonlinear systems, approximated by an equivalent dynamic linearization model using pseudo-partial derivatives. The closed loop stability is proved, showing that the tracking error asymptotically vanishes. Moreover, the proposed approach has been applied to a 5MWwind turbine, considering as control target the efficiency optimization issue when the turbine operates under medium wind speed conditions. Validation of the technique has been performed, testing the overall control system by simulation using the tool FAST developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

Abstract
In this paper, a novel data-driven control algorithm based on model-free adaptive control is presented, addressing general discrete-time single-input single-output nonlinear systems, approximated by an equivalent dynamic linearization model using pseudo-partial derivatives. The closed loop stability is proved, showing that the tracking error asymptotically vanishes. Moreover, the proposed approach has been applied to a 5MWwind turbine, considering as control target the efficiency optimization issue when the turbine operates under medium wind speed conditions. Validation of the technique has been performed, testing the overall control system by simulation using the tool FAST developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
