Abstract
In wind power generation, the wind energy loss caused by yaw and other factors is as high as 50%, which directly leads to the difficulty of greatly improving The efficiency of wind power generating in producing electricity. The development of yaw control system restricts the progress of wind energy utilization, The purpose of this study is to investigate the application and influence of automatic steering of offshore wind turbines in practice. This paper proposes that the automatic yaw system of offshore wind turbine can improve the efficiency of wind power generation. The outcomes of the experiment demonstrate that the wind resources can be fully utilized and the power generation efficiency of the offshore fan can be improved by enabling the offshore fan to automatically turn according to the wind direction. The research has a certain value for the development of new energy power generation technology. In this paper, the method of Simulink simulation experiment is used to demonstrate that the yaw system can improve the wind energy utilization coefficient of offshore fan.
