Bend-twist coupling potential of wind turbine blades
In the present study an evaluation of the potential for bend-twist coupling effects in wind turbine blades is addressed. A method for evaluation of the coupling magnitude based on the results of finite element modeling and full-field displacement measurements obtained by experiments is developed and tested on small-scale coupled composite beams. In the proposed method the coupling coefficient f...
متن کاملEffect of Turbulence on Power for Bend-Twist Coupled Blades
Bend-twist coupling of wind turbine blades reduces the structural loads of the turbine but it also results in a decrease of the annual energy production. The main part of the power loss can be mitigated by pretwisting the blade, but some power loss remains and previous studies indicate that it might be related to the dynamic response of bend-twist coupled blades in turbulent flow. This paper co...
متن کاملPower curves for wind turbines
The concept of a power curve is introduced, as well as the principles of the power conversion performed by a wind turbine. As an appropriate approach for the estimation of the annual power production of a wind turbine, the procedure to determine the power curve after the international standard IEC 61400 of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is discussed. As another approach is ...
متن کاملUsing Reactive Power from Wind Turbines for Loss Reduction in Distribution System
Considering the majority of the power losses occur in distribution systems, it is worthwhile to investigate the use of reactive power compensation (RPC) from wind turbines installed in the distribution system for loss reduction. Therefore, this paper analyses the effectiveness of the RPC for loss reduction under different system conditions. These include power factor of the system load, X/R rat...
