Wind Turbine Tower Resonance
Wind turbine towers are large structures designed to withstand the unique loading conditions imposed on them by the turbine’s nacelle and dynamic forces from the rotating blades. Observations and noise measurements of a particular wind turbine showed high noise levels at approximately 48 Hz, which could not be explained from the usual known potential noise sources. Correlated far field noise me...
متن کاملInvestigation of waviness in wind turbine blades: Structural health monitoring
Waviness in composite wind turbine blades was detected and characterized with the help of air coupled ultrasonics. Based on the aspect ratio, the detected marcels are either accepted or rejected. A passive structural health monitoring approach has been presented here to monitor the accepted marcels above a threshold. The fatigue life of specimen is most affected in the presence of a marcel. Hen...
متن کاملSpectral diffusion map approach for structural health monitoring of wind turbine blades using distributed sensors
Distributed Sensor Networks (DSN) has emerged as a sensing paradigms in the structural egineering field due to the application of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) for large-scale structures which results in accurately diagnosing the health of structures and enhancing the re liability and robustness of monitoring systems. The multisensor network greatly enhances the feasibility of applying SHM...
متن کاملOffshore Wind Turbine Tower Fore-Aft Fatigue Load Reduction by Coupling Control and Vibrational Analysis
The present study proposes a novel tower-control technique that couples linear control feedback theory with an online time-frequency analysis of the tower vibrations, with the aim to widen the research area of situational control of wind turbines. Numerical simulations were conducted for two 5MW-class offshore wind turbines, and the performance of the proposed control method has been tested in ...
متن کاملAn Approach to Supporting Maintenance of Offshore Wind Turbine Blades
Offshore wind turbine blades suffer from various faults such as blade angle asymmetry, icing, and bends. Replacement of rotor blades normally involves heavy transportation (e.g., vessel and crane), and dependency on weather conditions. As a result, wind turbines come to a long standstill and costs on energy production increase. One approach to reducing the downtime and costs is to apply a prope...
