Abstract

5MW wind turbine is regarded as a promising system for offshore wind farms in the western sea of Korean. And the wind turbine is developed in many companies but not much information is known about it. In this study, aerodynamics and control characteristics depending on several control methods is reviewed on 5MW wind turbine, in which configuration data of the turbine are used from the previous study of NREL. For the calculations, GH_Bladed, which is certificated software by GL, is used and compared with data from FAST code of NREL. This study shows that how much power production, and aerodynamic performances and loads can be obtained with different controls in the operation of 5MW wind turbine, which is expected to be useful in the design of the wind turbine system.
