<strong>Load</strong> <strong>set</strong> <strong>calculation</strong> DOWEC 6MW H. Efdé<br />
Summary<br />
This report contains a load <strong>set</strong> <strong>calculation</strong> and design variation <strong>calculation</strong>s for the DOWEC 6 MW<br />
wind turbine. The wind turbine is modelled in Phatas IV by <strong>ECN</strong>. The <strong>calculation</strong>s of the “baseline”<br />
wind turbine are performed with executable “phat6MW.exe” dated 020502. For the design variations<br />
other executables were used. The load <strong>set</strong> is programmed by Stentec B.V. according ref. [2]<br />
description.<br />
The resulting fatigue and ultimate loads are presented in time response diagrams, extreme values<br />
tables, statistics and VBC tables (1Hz equivalent signals), generated by Stentec B.V.’s post<br />
processing program ADAP. All results are stored on CD C45.04/01.03/03. The results of the design<br />
variation <strong>calculation</strong>s are stored on CD C45.04/01.03/03 and are used to generate “cost of energy”<br />
tables.<br />
The decisive values can be used for optimalisation and design detailling.<br />
