How does the use of active stall control compared to pitch control affect power output and load on the wind turbine?



Active stall control and pitch control are two different methods for regulating power output on a wind turbine. Active stall control affects power output and load differently than pitch control. Pitch control involves actively adjusting the pitch angle of the blades to control the amount of lift generated. The pitch angle is the angle between the blade chord (the line from the leading edge to the trailing edge) and the incoming wind. Stall control, on the other hand, involves inducing stall on the blades to reduce lift and limit power output. Stall occurs when the angle of attack (the angle between the blade and the wind) becomes too high, causing the airflow to separate from the blade surface and reduce lift. Pitch control provides smoother and more precise power regulation. By continuously adjusting the pitch angle, the turbine ....
