摘要
The paper describes a horizontal axis wind turbine time domain simulation and fatigue estimation program written using the Delphi(TM) language. The program models the flapwise motion of a single rotor blade to determine the blade-root fatigue damage of a medium size wind turbine. The effects of turbulence intensity, mean wind speed, wind shear, vertical wind component, dynamic stall, stall hysteresis, and blade stiffness were examined. When all these effects were simulated it is found that a reduction in life of about 2 occurs between a low wind speed low turbulence intensity site, compared to a high wind speed high turbulence intensity site.
