| Abstract: |
This paper describes and evaluates the use of the Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation (ANCF) in modeling large size wind turbine blades. Modern blade model can be divided into two regions classified by aerodynamic and structural function. The aerodynamic region, blade-span, is utilizing the thinnest possible airfoil section. On the other hand, the transition between the circular mount and the first airfoil profile is referred as blade- root region, which carries highest loads along the blade. In this investigation, an efficient ... |
