Hi, please post figures directly here. I have seen this kind of behavior very occasionally due to the nonlinearity of the controller and wind speed estimator. Updating to the latest version (v2.8.0) is also advisable. The minimum pitch at low wind speed is based on the wind speed estimate and the minimum pitch limit. You can plot these signals ( |

Good morning,
My name is Borja and I am currently in the process of validating and benchnmarking the IEA15MW wind turbines models for my company, and to do this, I am checking the fixed furbine configuration.
I am using the ROSCO V2.6.0 controller with the .IN file corresponding to the fixed monopile configuration. I started running some basic steady wind cases for a set of wind speeds, and I am encountering some issues in the Reg.II of the controller (corresponding to below-rated winds). If I use a ramped wind to avoid any initial instability, the pitch of the blades don't match the results published on the IEA15MW wind turbine repport, as the pitch is set at around 3.4 degs. and doesn't change once steady codnitions are encountered. On the other hand, if I run the simulations with no ramping time, the pitch reaches its correct value of 0 degs. for this region of the controller. This is the case for all the wuind velocities withing Reg.II of the controller.
Is this normal? Why does this happen and how can I avoid it? Shouldn't the turbine properties be equal once the steady state is reached?
Please, find in the link below two screenshots corresponding to my simulations with and without ramping time for a wind speed of 8.22 m/s in case you need them.
