Transient Simulation of Wind Turbine Towers under Lightning Stroke
A simulation algorithm is proposed in this paper for lightning transient analysis of the wind turbine (WT) towers. In the proposed algorithm, the tower body is first subdivided into a discrete multiconductor system. A set of formulas are given to calculate the electrical parameters of the branches i...
