ROSCO reorganization:

  • We have reorganized the ROSCO repository to follow recommended python packaging processes.
  • The former ROSCO_Toolbox has been moved into the rosco/toolbox directory and can be imported using import rosco.toolbox.
  • The controller fortran source code has been moved from ROSCO/ROSCO/src to ROSCO/controller/src

All API changes can be found in here, along with a summary of how to use the new inputs. Here is a script for updating DISCON inputs.

The floating feedback gain can now be gain scheduled versus wind speed. During wave basin testing of the ROSCO controller with a scale model, we found that in some metocean conditions, the floating feedback controller may require different tuning.

A rotor position controller for tracking the azimuth location of a given rotor position using the generator torque. This feature was used to validate aeroelastic models with given SCADA data.

A new torque control mode, which is less reliant on a wind speed estimate, based on feedback from certification bodies.

An initial power reference control, which changes the rated rotor speed based on the estimated wind speed. Further power control features are planned in future releases.

Tower resonance avoidance has been added, which will skip a given rotor speed using the generator torque control.
The wind farm control interface using ZeroMQ has been expanded with a more robust python interface for more turbines. The interface has been tested using FAST.Farm.
