IEC 61400-23:2014 defines the requirements for full-scale structural testing of wind turbine blades 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; - fatigue 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. lIEC 61400-23:2014 definit les exigences concernant les essais en vraie grandeur des structures des pales deolienne, ainsi que linterpretation et levaluation des resultats dessai obtenus. La norme cible les aspects des essais lies a une evaluation de lintegrite des pales, et sadresse aux fabricants et aux chercheurs tiers. La presente norme prend en consideration les essais suivants: - essais de charge statique; - essais de fatigue; - essais de charge statique apres essais de fatigue; - essais determinant dautres proprietes des pales.
