摘要
Physical simulations of fatigue and wear of a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) are extremely complex and difficult to evaluate both analytically and numerically. The primary difficulty is simulating the fatigue at the point that the airfoil attaches to the wind turbine structure. Physical testing of VAWT models would provide a simpler method of analyzing the dynamics of a prototype. However, accurate reproduction of the aerodynamic loading imposed on a VAWT body due to the rotational wake is difficult to replicate.
