Experimental and Numerical Vibrational Analysis of a Horizontal-Axis Micro-Wind Turbine

Experimental and Numerical Vibrational Analysis of a Horizontal-Axis Micro-Wind Turbine

Micro-wind turbines are energy conversion technologies strongly affected by fatigue, as a result of their size and the variability of loads, induced by the unsteady wind conditions, and modulated by a very high rotational speed. This work is devoted to the experimental and numerical characterization...
