METHOD OF DAMPING WIND TURBINE TOWER OSCILLATIONS
A method of damping oscillations in a wind turbine tower comprises connecting a bag of material or liquid to a tower component at a first lateral distance away from a tower wall. The bag is also suspended from the tower component by a first vertical distance. The height of the tower component is known such that the first vertical distance corresponds to a particular height within the tower. The first lateral distance, first vertical distance, and mass of the bag are such that the bag is configured to hit said tower wall during oscillations in said wind turbine tower, in order to damp said oscillations in said wind turbine tower.
