简介
This paper presents a hierarchical control framework for a kite-based marine hydrokinetic (MHK) system that executes power-augmenting cross-current flight, along with simulation results based on a high-fidelity turbulent flow model that is representative of flow conditions in the Gulf Stream. The hierarchical controller is used to robustly regulate both the kite’s flight path and the intra-cycle spooling behavior, which is ultimately used to realize net positive energy production at a base station motor/generator system. Two configurations are examined in this paper: one in which the kite is suspended from a surface-mounted platform, and another in which the kite is deployed from the seabed. To evaluate the robustness of this control framework in a realistic ocean environment, we present simulation results whereby we superimpose low-frequency data from the Mid Atlantic Bight South Atlantic Bight Regional Ocean …
