Abstract
In this work, 1 MW class horizontal axis wind turbine blade configuration is properly sized and analyzed using the newly proposed aerodynamic design procedure and the in-house code developed by authors, and its design results are verified through comparison with experimental results of previously developed wind turbine blade. The structural design of the wind turbine blade is carried out using a composite materials and the netting and rule of mixture deign methods. The structural safety of the designed blade structure is investigated through the various load cases, stress, deformation, buckling and vibration analyses using the commercial FEM code, MSC.NASTRAN. Finally the required fatigue life is investigated using the modified Spera's experimental equation.
