This paper presents detailed descriptions, modeling parameters and technical data of a
5MW high‐speed gearbox developed for the National Renewable Energy Laboratory …

A key motivation for airborne wind energy is its potential to reduce the amount of material
required for the generation of renewable energy. On the other hand, the materials used for …

Modeling leading-edge erosion has been a challenging task due to its multidisciplinary
nature involving several variables such as weather conditions, blade coating properties, and …

A versatile framework is introduced for determining optimal steady‐state operating points for
wind turbine control. The framework is based on solving constrained optimization problems …

This study compares the impact of drivetrain configuration on the mass and capital cost of a
series of wind turbines ranging from 1.5 MW to 5.0 MW power ratings for both land‐based …

Turbulent wake flows behind helical-and straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs)
rotating at low tip speed ratios (TSRs) are studied numerically. The turbulent flows are …

Based on the provisions of grid support published in the latest network codes (NC), wind
turbines (WTs), among other renewable energy units, must regulate their output power to …
