Description

Individual pitch control and trailing edge flaps have been shown to be capable of reducing flapwise fatigue loads on wind turbine blades, with research to date focusing on controller development and performance assessment. This work covers development of a blade optimisation process which integrates synthesis of individual pitch and trailing edge flap controllers to evaluate their impact on the levelised cost of energy. The optimisation process selects blade chord, twist and material distribu...
