An 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...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Wind Turbine LiDAR Simulator
Remote sensing techniques like LiDAR offer many novel applications to the wind energy community, e.g. fast and accurate measurements of inflow and wake wind fields from the turbine nacelle. The prospects of such a new technique are evaluated with a software tool simulating a nacelle-based LiDAR system. The paper presents the implementation and application of a simulator that has been conceived ...
متن کاملApplication of guide blades for improving performance of savonius wind turbine
Application of guide blades is an appropriate method for improving aerodynamic performance of savonius wind turbine. Guide blades gather the wind energy around the turbine and guide them into the concave side of savonius rotor. In this paper, numerical investigation is conducted for evaluating effect of the guide blades on the performance of savonius turbine. Aerodynamic performance of the turb...
متن کاملMaterials for Wind Turbine Blades: An Overview
A short overview of composite materials for wind turbine applications is presented here. Requirements toward the wind turbine materials, loads, as well as available materials are reviewed. Apart from the traditional composites for wind turbine blades (glass fibers/epoxy matrix composites), natural composites, hybrid and nanoengineered composites are discussed. Manufacturing technologies for win...
