DOI: 10.1016/j.renene.2017.08.074
Abstract: Wake effect causes fatigue increase on the horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) blades. This wake-induced fatigue has significant impacts on the efficiency and lifespan of the whole wind farm. However, conventional aeroelastic codes are deficient… read more here.
