A METHOD FOR REDUCING ROTOR IMBALANCE IN A WIND TURBINE

A method for controlling a wind turbine (1) is disclosed. The wind turbine (1) comprises three or more wind turbine blades (4), and blade connecting wires (7), each blade connecting wire (7) extending between a connection point (8) on one wind turbine blade (4) and a connection point (8) on a neighb...

Zusammenfassung:	A method for controlling a wind turbine (1) is disclosed. The wind turbine (1) comprises three or more wind turbine blades (4), and blade connecting wires (7), each blade connecting wire (7) extending between a connection point (8) on one wind turbine blade (4) and a connection point (8) on a neighbouring wind turbine blade (4). The wind turbine (1) further comprises pre-tension wires (9), each pre-tension wire (9) being connected to one of the blade connecting wires (7) and to a pre-tension adjustment mechanism (10). The method comprises measuring at least one parameter of the wind turbine (1), and deriving an estimate for a rotor imbalance of the wind turbine (1) from the at least one measured parameter. The pre-tension adjustment mechanism (10) is controlled based on the estimated rotor imbalance in order to counteract the rotor imbalance.
