Abstract: A new design methodology of gain scheduled controllers for wind turbines is presented. The proposed methodology is intended to deal with multi-variable and high order models as those produced by high fidelity aeroelastic simulators. The methodology consists in interpolating the local controller outputs and does not require a uniform state definition either of the local controllers or of the linear models. This allows the design of each controller independently, an essential point in cases of high order models. An aeroelastic model of a typical commercial wind turbine is used to illustrate the methodology.
