Hello.
i am derating my turbine by changing in the pitch angle changing in it . i am doing 1-4 degree change in my pitch angle. i want to test my load
what outputs should i choose if i am changing in the pitch angle continuously? i have checked the output of elasto dyn can output and i found blade loads for the root and for the span of the blade .Which should i check on if i am changing in my pitch angle for each blade .inplane moments out of plane moments ?If i want to have a general picture about the loads what should I output ? should I check on my tower loads too ?
thank you
Dear Mostafa,
At a minimum, it is common to check both the flapwise and edgewise blade-root bending moments. Using more outputs will provide a fuller picture of the impact of your pitch controller.
Best regards,
