Abstract

Fluctuating wind speed spectrum, which is closer to the actual working conditions, was simulated by davenport wind speed model, and displacement and stress distribution of blade under fluctuating wind speed were calculated by finite element analysis software. The numerical results indicate that the growth trend of vibration amplitude for whole blade at flapping direction is nonlinear along the wingspan. The max von-mises stress appears when the vibration amplitude of tip reaches the maximum, and it is mainly concentrated in the central part of the blade. The stress at trailing edge and tip is smaller than the central part. Above results provide a reference for the strength safety design of wind turbine blade.,Fluctuating wind speed spectrum, which is closer to the actual working conditions, was simulated by davenport wind speed model, and displacement and stress distribution of blade under fluctuating wind speed were calculated by finite element analysis software.
