Development of Methodology for Horizontal-Axis Wind-Turbine Dynamic Analysis. Summary Report

摘要

The 3-year effort reported included: (1) review of the MOSTAS computer programs for dynamic analysis of horizontal-axis wind turbines; (2) review of various analysis methods for rotating systems with periodic coefficients; (3) review of structural dynamics analysis tools for large wind turbine; (4) experiments for yaw characteristics of a rotating rotar; (5) development of a finite element model for rotors; (6) development of simple models for aeroelastic; and (7) development of simple models for stability and response of wind turbines on flexible towers.
