In a wind turbine's pitch control experiencing high winds, which outcome occurs when the control algorithm oscillates?

A)Resonant structural fatigue emerges
B)Generator torque output stabilizes
C)Aerodynamic stall margin increases
D)Blade tip speed converges quickly

💡 Explanation

Resonant structural fatigue emerges because the pitch control system induces oscillations matching the tower's natural frequencies; this triggers a positive feedback loop via the **control loop gain**, therefore increasing stress, rather than stabilizing torque due to constant pitch adjustments.
