Abstract

With the large-scale development of wind turbines, large flexible blades bear heavier loads. In the actual rotating work of blades, the coupling of structural deformation and motion produces a dynamic stiffening effect and spin softening effect, which affects the dynamic characteristics of blades. In this study, the finite element method is used to model the NREL 5MW blade, and the dynamic stiffening and spin softening effects are investigated using the modal analysis. The influence of rotating effects on the blade’s natural frequency is revealed. It is concluded that the effect of dynamic stiffening is more significant than that of spin softening, and the comprehensive result of the two effects is not simply the superposition of them but presents obvious nonlinearity.
