The maximum wind load supported by a wind turbine, generally estimated through experimentation. 3, record 1, English, - extreme%20wind%20load
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Extreme loads are estimated by simulating extreme inflow conditions. Both a 50-year extreme ten minute average wind speed with turbulence and an extreme discrete wind speed model are used. The highest load from among all conditions is used for design and certification purposes. When the highest load comes from a turbulent wind simulation, it is sometimes used without further statistical extrapolation. 4, record 1, English, - extreme%20wind%20load
