摘要：AbstractA modifier adaptation scheme based on Gaussian processes is presented to optimize the control inputs of a wind farm. Often an approximate model of the wind farm is available, however due to the high complexity of the process plant-model mismatch is prevalent. For example the mechanics of wakes is not well-understood, which may have a profound impact on the power production of wind farms. Therefore, Gaussian process (GP) regression is exploited to account for this deviation. A distributed learning approach is used to learn the plant-model mismatch of each individual turbine considering explicitly the uncertainty of the uncontrolled inputs, like the wind direction. Afterwards, a distributed optimization scheme using alternating direction method of multipliers is applied to iteratively attain the wind farm optimum despite the presence of plant-model mismatch.
