Comparative Fatigue Life Assessment of Wind Turbine Blades Operating with Different Regulation Schemes

Comparative Fatigue Life Assessment of Wind Turbine Blades Operating with Different Regulation Schemes

A comparative evaluation of the fatigue damage occurring in the blades of small wind turbines, with different power regulation schemes, has been conducted for the first time. Three representative test cases were built, one based on stall regulation and two using pitch regulation. The power curves we...
