General Structure Configuration and Parametric Design Method of Wind Turbine Tower

Abstract:

In order to improve the design efficiency of wind turbine tower, a design method which combines configuration and parametric design is proposed, the general structure model of wind turbine tower is given, and the parameter relation model of tower components is established. Based on skeleton and coordinate system coincident method, the automatic assembly of 3D tower model is realized. An automated 3D design software system of wind turbine tower is built by the API of Pro/E. The validity of the system is proved by wind turbine SUT-1500.
