Validation of an Enhanced Aeroelastic Analysis Code for Wind Turbines

Abstract: Wind turbines are currently a rapidly expanding form of renewable energy. However, there are numerous technological challenges that must be overcome before wind energy provides a significant amount of power in the United States. One of the primary challenges in wind turbine design and analysis is accurately accounting for the aerodynamic environment. This study is focused on a comprehensive verification and validation of the NREL FAST code, which has been enhanced to include a free vortex wake model. The verif… Show more
