AERODYNAMICS OF WIND TURBINES

Aerodynamics of Wind Turbines is the established essential text for the fundamental solutions to efficient wind turbine design. Now in its third edition, it has been substantially updated with respect to structural dynamics and control. The new control chapter now includes details on how to design a classical pitch and torque regulator to control rotational speed and power, while the section o n structural dynamics has been extended with a simplified mechanical system explaining the phenomena of forward and backward whirlin g modes. ...[Llegir més]
