Abstract

The Modal module of ANSYS Workbench software is used to perform a modal analysis of a wind turbine tower system, and the tower is calculated and analyzed under the premise of optimizing the model without considering the influence of the tower door opening on the tower structure and without external load. Through the analysis of the array diagram and the system excitation frequency, the seventh-order frequency array diagram avoids the occurrence of resonance phenomena, verifies the stability of the tower model, does not pose a danger to the system, and is beneficial to the long-term stable operation of the generator.
