The first automatically operated wind turbine, built in Cleveland in 1887 by Charles F. Brush. It was 60 feet (18 m) tall, weighed 4 tons (3.6 metric tons) and powered a 12 kW generator.
The foundation is a structural part that allows the turbine to function properly during its entire lifetime. The foundation system is a major and primary component of the wind turbine generator and is used to keep the turbine in its proper position while being exposed to the forces of nature.
Design process The design process involves an initial site selection followed by an assessment of external conditions, selection of wind turbine size, subsurface investigation, assessment of geo-hazards, foundation and support structure selection, developing design load cases, and performing geotechnical and structural analyses.
There are many types of foundation methods for a wind turbine. In this chapter some of them are presented and analyzed. The methods can be divided into two subgroups; spread foundations and piled foundations. Valid for both types of foundation is that there must be some kind of interface that connects the tower with the foundation.
Foundation dynamics is an important consideration in the design of an offshore wind turbine. As the offshore wind turbine rotates, the blades travel past the tower creating vibrations to which the offshore wind turbine is sensitive.
Wind turbine foundation is subject to high-cyclic load. The number of cycles can be up to 107. Code for design of concrete structures (GB50010-2010) only provides fatigue analysis of concrete at 2X106 cycles. Therefore, it’s not suitable to verify fatigue resistance of wind turbine foundations.
From the wind turbine foundation construction point of view the following factors listed below will affect the design and construction: technical specifications of wind turbines, construction site conditions, International and local standards, regulations and climate uncertainties.
