The present work addresses the problem of vortex induced vibrations (VIVs) of wind turbine blades in standstill. In order to progress in the understanding of this phenomenon, both a comprehensive literature review and a numerical study were carried out. Why is vibration a limiting. . This paper presents the mathematical modeling of the thermal state of a 1000 W wind turbine generator (WTG) integrated into a vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) system, taking into account external environmental factors, mechanical losses, and the operation of the cooling system. To achieve this, a data acquisition system distributed throughout the tower height is designed. The two main methods of performing thermal instability testing - direct current injection and friction/windage -. . Vibrations, stemming from aerodynamic loads, mechanical imbalances, and resonance phenomena, impose significant stress on turbine components, leading to material fatigue, efficiency losses, and increased maintenance costs. The integration of damping technologies, such as tuned mass dampers (TMDs). .
