26、ting of rotor blades FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning s
27、tandardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their prepa
28、ration is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
29、with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant s
30、ubjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the techni
31、cal content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum exten
32、t possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide c
33、onformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its d
34、irectors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses ari
35、sing out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is
36、 drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 61400-23 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 88: Wind turbines. This f
37、irst edition cancels and replaces IEC TS 61400-23, published in 2001. It constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to IEC TS 61400-23: a) description of load based testing only; b) condensation to describe the general principles
38、and demands. 6 IEC 61400-23:2014 IEC 2014 The text of this standard is based on the following documents: CDV Report on voting 88/420/CDV 88/448/RVC Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has
39、 been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. A list of all parts in the IEC 61400 series, published under the general title Wind turbines, can be found on the IEC website. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability da
40、te indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. A bilingual version of this publication may be issued at a later date. IMPORTANT Th
41、e colour inside logo on the cover page of this publication indicates that it contains colours which are considered to be useful for the correct understanding of its contents. Users should therefore print this document using a colour printer. IEC 61400-23:2014 IEC 2014 7 INTRODUCTION The blades of a
42、wind turbine rotor are generally regarded as one of the most critical components of the wind turbine system. In this standard, the demands for full-scale structural testing related to certification are defined as well as the interpretation and evaluation of test results. Specific testing methods or
43、set-ups for testing are not demanded or included as full-scale blade testing methods historically have developed independently in different countries and laboratories. Furthermore, demands for tests determining blade properties are included in this standard in order to validate some vital design ass
44、umptions used as inputs for the design load calculations. Any of the requirements of this standard may be altered if it can be suitably demonstrated that the safety of the system is not compromised. The standard is based on IEC TS 61400-23 published in 2001. Compared to the TS, this standard only de
45、scribes load based testing and is condensed to describe the general principles and demands. 8 IEC 61400-23:2014 IEC 2014 WIND TURBINES Part 23: Full-scale structural testing of rotor blades 1 Scope This part of IEC 61400 defines the requirements for full-scale structural testing of wind turbine blad
46、es and for the interpretation and evaluation of achieved test results. The standard focuses on aspects of testing related to an evaluation of the integrity of the blade, for use by manufacturers and third party investigators. The following tests are considered in this standard: static load tests; fa
47、tigue tests; static load tests after fatigue tests; tests determining other blade properties. The purpose of the tests is to confirm to an acceptable level of probability that the whole population of a blade type fulfils the design assumptions. It is assumed that the data required to define the para
48、meters of the tests are available and based on the standard for design requirements for wind turbines such as IEC 61400-1 or equivalent. Design loads and blade material data are considered starting points for establishing and evaluating the test loads. The evaluation of the design loads with respect
49、 to the actual loads on the wind turbines is outside the scope of this standard. At the time this standard was written, full-scale tests were carried out on blades of horizontal axis wind turbines. The blades were mostly made of fibre reinforced plastics and wood/epoxy. However, most principles would be applicable to any wind turbine configuration, size and material. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced
