Gear fatigue damage for a 500 kW wind turbine exposed to increasing turbulence using a flexible multibody model
This paper investigates gear tooth fatigue damage in a 500 kW wind turbine using FLEX5 and own multibody code. FLEX5 provides the physical wind field, rotor and generator torque and the multibody code is used for obtaining gear tooth reaction forces in the planetary gearbox. Different turbulence lev...
