AIRTuB Work Package 6 event at Entrance on modelling erosion.

Dynamic stall phenomena carry the risk of negative damping and instability in wind turbine blades. It is crucial to model these phenomena accurately to reduce inaccuracies in predicting design driving (fatigue and extreme) loads. Some of the inaccuracies in current dynamic stall models may be due to …

Dynamic stall phenomena bring risk for negative damping and instability in wind turbine blades. It is crucial to model these phenomena accurately to reduce inaccuracies in predicting design driving (fatigue) loads. Inaccuracies in current dynamic stall models may be due to the facts that they are not …

This research proposes new structural lay-outs for large wind turbine blades. The lay-outs were found by an optimisation method where the aerodynamics of wind turbine blades was combined with the structural model of the blade, formulated in a corotational framework. The aeroelastic blade loads were calculated …
