Vibrational Stresses of Damaged Steam Turbine Blades After Renovation Repair [PDF]
Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2021 The last-stage blades of K-1000-60/3000 steam turbines operate in a humid steam environment, which causes erosion damage in the blades and reduction in their residual life.

Individual Blade Pitch Control for Load Reduction
Wind Energy, 2002 AbstractIf a pitch‐regulated wind turbine has individual pitch actuators for each blade, the possibility arises to send different pitch angle demands to each blade. The possibility of using this as a way of reducing loads has been suggested many times over the years, but the idea has yet to gain full commercial acceptance. There are a number of reasons

Design of a 3.4‐MW wind turbine with integrated plasma actuator‐based load control
Wind Energy, 2022 Historically, cost reduction in wind energy has been accomplished by increasing hub heights and rotor diameters to capture more energy per turbine. The growth in rotor and turbine costs with increasing turbine sizes is also driven by the additional ...
