Numerical Simulations of Novel Conning Designs for Future Super-Large Wind Turbines

In order to develop super-large wind turbines, new concepts, such as downwind load-alignment, are required. Additionally, segmented blade concepts are under investigation. As a simple example, the coned rotor needs be investigated. In this paper, different conning configurations, including special c...
