Abstract
Abstract. In this study, the possibility of simulating some transient and
deterministic extreme operational conditions for horizontal axis wind
turbines based on the IEC 61400-1 standard using 60 individually controlled
fans in the Wind Engineering, Energy and Environment (WindEEE) Dome at
Western University was investigated. Experiments were carried out for the
extreme operational gust (EOG), positive and negative extreme vertical shear
(EVS), and extreme horizontal shear (EHS) cases, tailored for a scaled 2.2 m
horizontal axis wind turbine. For this purpose, firstly a numerical model
for the test chamber was developed and used to obtain the fans'
configurations for simulating each extreme condition with appropriate
scaling prior to the physical experiments. The results show the capability
of using numerical modelling to predict the fans' setup based on which
physical simulations can generate IEC extreme conditions in the range of
interest.
