HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Wind Energ. Sci. and collaborators from the University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, CO, USA have published the Article: System-level design studies for large rotors, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
- what: The authors examine the effect of rotor design choices on the power capture and structural loading of each major turbine component. For a 13 MW design the authors show that increasing the blade length by 25 m while decreasing the induction factor of the rotor increases annual energy capture by 11 % while constraining peak blade loads. A full set of design load cases (DLCs . . .
