Why do wind turbine standards matter?
Together, these standards help keep design and production reliable and conducive to the long-lasting use of wind turbines so that they may remain dependably in service for the length of their planned lifetime and realize both their environmental and economic benefits.
What is a turbine wind class?
Turbine wind class is just one of the factors needing consideration during the complex process of planning a wind power plant. Wind classes determine which turbine is suitable for the normal wind conditions of a particular site. Turbine classes are determined by three parameters - the average wind speed, extreme 50-year gust, and turbulence.
What is a small wind turbine?
Small wind turbines are defined as being of up to 200 m 2 swept area and a somewhat simplified IEC 61400-2 standard addresses these. It is also possible to use the IEC 61400-1 standard for turbines of less than 200 m 2 swept area. The standards for loads and noise are used in the development of prototypes at the Østerild Wind Turbine Test Field.
Can a performance evaluation procedure be used to evaluate a wind turbine?
The procedure can be used for performance evaluation of specific wind turbines at specific locations, but equally the methodology can be used to make generic comparisons between different wind turbine models or different wind turbine settings when site-specific conditions and data filtering influences are taken into account.
Does IEC 61400-24 apply to lightning protection of wind turbines?
IEC 61400-24: applies to lightning protection of wind turbine generators and wind power systems. Refer to guidelines for small wind turbines in annex. This document defines the lightning environment for wind turbines and risk assessment for wind turbines in that environment.
What is the purpose of a wind turbine protection plan?
Its purpose is to provide an appropriate level of protection against damage from all hazards during the planned lifetime. This document is concerned with all subsystems of wind turbines such as control and protection functions, internal electrical systems, mechanical systems and support structures.
