Sep 29, 2022 - Is There a Limit to Wind Turbine Size?

Wind turbines are big and getting bigger. The largest wind turbines now have towers that are over 150m tall, and blades that are well over 100m long. But how big can they get? And how big will they get? In this video I`m going to talk about the engineering behind this, that helps designers decide how big wind turbines should be. I`ll briefly cover some overall scaling effects and then go into a bit more depth about structural design of the most important components: the blades, tower, gearbox and bearings.
