Design of Proposed Wind Turbine Tower Testing Facility at the University of Wyoming Original Design (Fall 2011): Wade Burkett Margaret KimblePresented by Margaret Kimble Meadow Ridley Senior Honors Project 2012

Presentation Outline Facility Overview and Background Faculty Requirements Design Concept Proposed Changes and Areas of Further Design

Facility Overview and Background

Background Future of Wind Power Taller Towers Different Composition Advantage of Taller Towers Minimization of Obstructions Composition Steel Lattice Post-tensioned Concrete

Overview Tower Testing Multi-Axial Testing Strength Fatigue Axial

Facility Requirements

Load Requirements Crucial Loads: Stop of Rotation Moment and Wind Stop of Rotation Moment Wind Loads Tower Facility

Load Application Locations of Applied Loads Mounting of Actuator

Axial Load Results from Equipment on Top Tower Self-weight Collar Design Applicable for Testing of Lower Segments Specific to the Tower being Tested Connect Directly to the Foundation Pad

Operational Limitations Testing Conditions Wind Speed Limitations 50 mph

Design Concept

Facility Design

Site

Facility Design Clear Zone Limitations on: Facilities Placement Personnel Location during Testing

Facility Design Wall Strong Shape Minimization of Concrete Ease of Construction Off-Site Ease of Transportation and Placement Multi-segment construction

Facility Design Wall Face Slabs (5 or 10 ft by 1 ft by 50 or 55 ft) Web Slabs (5 ft by 6” by 50 or 55 ft)

Facility Design Wall Connection

Facility Design Foundation Sizing Depth Plan Dimensions Reinforcement #11 bars Spacing: 4 in on center Two layers

Facility Design Piles 64 Tube Grid Spacing: 7 ft 6 in Edge Distance: 3 ft 9 in 16 in diameter Capacity: 400 kip

Facility Design Foundation Pad Steel Plate DYWIDAG Connectors

Loading Equipment Actuator: MTS Capacity: 500 kip Stroke: 40 in Shoe for Load Application Pump: MTS Flow Rate: 30 gpm Loading Rate: 34.5 in/min

Cost Estimate

Proposed Changes and Areas of Further Design

Proposed Changes and Areas for Further Design Strong Axis Design Inclusion of Buttress Full Height

Strong Axis Advantage Smaller Wall More Economic Disadvantage Limited Load Placement

Inclusion of Buttress Provides Stiffening for the Wall Allows for Greater Torsional Capacity Allows for Eccentric Loading

Full Height Testing Industrial Advantages Construction of Form Work Testing Advantages Reduction in Scaling
