(LWS) and turbine control system
  Evolved from laser technology first developed for the
aerospace industry for measuring air speed and direction
  Only nacelle-mounted, LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging)
based wind sensor available in the market, that can
provide wind speed and direction
  Independent testing has been completed and
commercialization is now underway

  Complementary products include WindSeekerTM and

Racer’s Edge ® wind measurement devices

Wind Turbine Control
Performance Enhancement and Durability

  Wind turbines are designed to be facing directly into

the wind
  Wind is highly variable and often unpredictable
particularly over short periods of time
  A modern turbine’s nacelle can pivot left and right
(yaw) to compensate for wind direction changes
  Important aspect of keeping turbines operating
efficiently
  Wind turbines are guided by control systems using
data from wind measurement instruments mounted
at the rear of the nacelle
  Traditional wind measurement instruments gauge
speed and direction after the air has passed through
the distorting effect of a turbine’s massive rotating
blades
  This form of ‘reactive control’ is like driving your car by
looking into your rear view mirror
  Yaw misalignments, caused by measuring the distorted
flow, have been measured as high as 30-45 degrees

Wind Turbine Control
Bringing Aerospace Sophistication to the Wind Energy Industry

  Catch the Wind’s Vindicator® LWS uses multiple

eye-safe laser beams to accurately map the wind
before it passes through a turbine’s rotor

  Vindicator® LWS provides wind speed/direction

measurements of undisturbed wind up to 300m in
front of the turbine The hemispherical cup anemometer (original 1846 design) and modern 
turbine applica+ons on the rear of the nacelle 

  Vindicator® LWS measurements are input into a

proprietary control algorithm that allows a turbine to
re-orient before the wind arrives

  Vindicator® LWS allows turbines to capture

maximum available power in turbulent conditions
and minimizes mechanical damage from recurring
misalignment at high wind speeds
Vindicator® LWS uses lasers to look beyond distor+ng affects of turbines’ 
blades and measure wind in front of the turbine

Vindicator®
Laser Wind Sensor

CTW’s Vindicator® LWS utilizes forward-looking wind sensors to read the

approaching wind and control the wind turbine proactively to enable an
optimal operation
  Aerospace grade laser sensors and
technology
  Fully integrated wind turbine control system

How it Works:
1.  Three laser beams pulse 1000 times per
second
2.  Laser energy reflects off dust particles in the
wind and changes color according to their
velocity
3.  Sensors detect the color change and
calculate wind speed and direction
4.  Measurements are fed into proprietary control Vindicator® LWS mounted on a GE 1.5 MW Wind Turbine
algorithm which outputs signals that can be
entered into a turbine’s existing control
system hardware 7

Vindicator® LWS
Measurement Accuracy
  Cup anemometers and wind vanes are the most prevalent wind measurement technologies currently available
  Have proven highly effective and reliable for meteorological and wind resource applications
  In undisturbed air conditions, measurements obtained from cup anemometers and wind vanes exhibit almost perfect
correlation with Vindicator ® LWS measurements (R2 > 0.99)
  Cup and sonic anemometers are not suitable for turbine-mounted yaw guidance because the distorting effect of the
turbines’ spinning rotor interferes with their ability to take accurate measurements
  Turbine manufacturers have incorporated mathematical models to compensate for the rotor distortion; but given the random nature of the
distortion (see chart on bottom right), these have proven to be only minimally effective
  Vindicator ® LWS obtains measurements in front of the turbine and is unaffected by the spinning rotor’s distorting effects

conducted by Helimax Energy Inc. in April 2010 that turbine’s yaw can be more than 20 degrees misaligned 8
