Measurement of unsteady wind loads in a wind tunnel: Scaling of turbulence spectra

open access: yesJournal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics, 2019
Mismatch of turbulence spectra from the corresponding full-scale conditions is a common challenge in wind tunnel modelling of unsteady wind loads on small-scale structures, such as solar panels, heliostats and low-rise buildings. Understanding the effect

A technique for reducing supersonic transient loads on internal wind tunnel balances [PDF]

open access: yesTehnika
Design of slender supersonic missiles requires a comprehensive experimental support in the form of wind tunnel data for a wide range of flight parameters (angle of attack and Mach number). However, in supersonic wind tunnel testing, the problem exists of

Response of 5 MW Floating Wind Turbines to Combined Action of Wind and Rain

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
For 5 MW floating wind turbines, the load response is significantly affected by wind and rain conditions. In order to reveal the relevant regularity of windblown rain and analyze the load response after being affected by the wind and rain, the rain phase

Wind-induced response analysis of flat-elliptical pipe skeleton plastic greenhouse considering dynamic wind effects

open access: yesScientific Reports
Existing codes for agricultural structures, such as greenhouses, primarily account for the mean wind load, neglecting the impact of fluctuating wind. This study investigated the dynamic response of flat-elliptical pipe skeleton plastic greenhouses(FEPG ...

Wind Loads on a PV Array

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
This study experimentally determines the wind loads on a stand-alone solar array (length-to-width ratio of 0.19; 1/10-scale commercial modules). The freestream velocity in a uniform flow is 14.5 ± 0.1 m/s, and the turbulence intensity is 0.3%.

Short-term fatigue analysis for tower base of a spar-type wind turbine under stochastic wind-wave loads

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2018
Due to integrated stochastic wind and wave loads, the supporting platform of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine (FOWT) has to bear six Degrees of Freedom (DOF) motion, which makes the random cyclic loads acting on the structural components, for instance ...
