Abstract
AbstractThe conceptual design and proof‐of‐concept testing of a furling vertical axis wind turbine, suited to large‐scale offshore deployment, is described. Through the implementation of variable geometry capabilities, extreme storm loads can be reduced, and unsteady flow‐related fatigue loads can be minimized thereby reducing capital (structural) and maintenance costs. Moreover, annual power generation can be optimized in real‐time to account for unsteady wind effects related to weather and siting thus improving efficiency and annual power generation.
