Design of Assembled Post-Tensioned Prestressed Reactive Powder Concrete Wind Turbine Tower

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper proposes a new type of assembled post-tensioned prestressed reactive powder concrete (RPC) turbine tower structure. It includes the structure design of 200kW wind turbine tower according to the specifications, calculation of loading combinations and internal force, checking calculation of bearing capacity, prestressed concrete design and calculation of reinforcement. Local stress applied on the structure is analyzed by the finite element software of ANSYS, and the calculation results show that the bearing capacity calculation of RPC tower satisfies the requirements, and it is economical comparing with the traditional steel structures.
