Wind turbine blade load characterization under yaw offset at the SWiFT facility

Ennis, Brandon L.; White, Jonathan; Paquette, Joshua P.

Wind turbine yaw offset reduces power and alters the loading on a stand-alone wind turbine. The manner in which loads are affected by yaw offset has been analyzed and characterized based on atmospheric conditions in this paper using experimental data from the SWiFT facility to better understand the correlation between yaw offset and turbine performance.
