GL Renewables Certification has started a project to evaluate the LMS Samtech software tool “Samcef For Wind Turbines” (S4WT).
The software by LMS Samtech provides an integrated solution simulating the complete dynamic behaviour of wind turbines under realistic wind conditions. The objective of this project in conjunction with LMS Samtech is to validate and to certify S4WT for the computation of aero-elastic wind turbine design loads according to the certification standards of GL Renewables Certification. GL Renewables Certification will carry out detailed comparisons between in-house aero-elastic software tools and Samcef for Wind Turbines (S4WT).
