Report on a Workshop Concerning Code Validation: National Wind Technology Center, 8-9 August 1996, Boulder, Colorado

Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper

Abstract

The design of wind turbine components is becoming more critical as turbines become lighter and more dynamically active. Computer codes that will reliably predict turbine dynamic response are, therefore, more necessary than before. However, predicting the dynamic response of very slender rotating structures that operate in turbulent winds is not a simple matter. Even so, codes for this purposehave been developed and tested in North America and in Europe, and it is important to disseminate information on this subject. The purpose of this workshop was to allow those involved in the wind energy industry in the United States to assess the progress in validation of the codes most commonly used for structural/aero-elastic wind turbine simulation.
