Assessment of idling wind turbine loads in conditions favoring tower vortex induced vibrations
2026
Overview
Vortex induced vibrations in wind turbine towers are a well-known problem that becomes more severe as the need for upscaling calls for low frequency towers. Predicting vortex induced vibrations in wind turbine towers poses a significant computational challenge that is partly overcome by relying on empirical approaches. This paper presents the implementation of the calibrated Hartlen-Currie lift-oscillator model for the prediction of the response of the tower of the IEA 15 MW reference wind turbine, under conditions that favour the onset of VIV. Introducing tower VIV modelling across a range of yaw angles and including turbulent inflow has a significant effect on the predicted loading of both the tower and the blades. Notable increase in the standard deviation of the tower bending moments is observed which has direct implications for the long-term fatigue loading of the tower.
