2 Soft vs Stiff XXL Tower DynamicsSummary of Results and Conclusions
• An IEC-Compliant Load Analysis has been completed for:• A wind turbine of 3.5MW with a 160m tall soft-soft tower, a rotor diameter of 130m and a
overall nacelle weight of 200T.
• A wind turbine of 3.5MW with a 160m tall soft-stiff tower, a rotor diameter of 130m and a overall nacelle weight of 200T.
• Tower flexibility increases static and fatigue loads:• Moderate increase in WTG Operation• Significant increase in Shut Down loadcases (critical for soft-soft towers)
