US Patent 11015576 Wind turbine control system including an artificial intelligence ensemble engine

A system for generating power includes an environmental engine operating on one or more computing devices that determines a Reynolds number for a wind turbine, wherein the Reynolds number characterizes wind flowing over a blade of the wind turbine that varies based on the wind speed, a rotor speed and characteristics of the blade of the wind turbine. The system also includes an artificial intelligence (AI) ensemble engine operating on the one or more computing devices that generates a plurality of different models for the wind turbine. Each model characterizes a relationship between the rotor speed and a blade pitch for the wind turbine, the Reynolds number, wind speed and turbulence intensity for the wind turbine. The AI ensemble engine selects a model with a highest efficiency metric; and simulates execution of the selected model to determine recommended operating parameters.
