This study delves into investigating the profound impact of wind loads on the structural integrity of wind tur- bines. To comprehensively assess the influence of wind loads, a two-pronged approach was adopted: first, a meticulously crafted 1/100 scale model was employed within a wind tunnel, and second, advanced numerical simulations based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) were conducted. Moreover, the study takes into ac- count the intricate factor of turbine proximity in the wind tunnel setup. The design of the tower structure takes into consideration an array of loads, including lateral and gravitational forces. Notably, a substantial load arises from the rotational force generated by blade motion, which exerts its effects on the structure. Calculations of this force were executed using ABAQUS software. This multifaceted analysis involves the application of angular velocity to the blades, subsequently enabling the computation of time-dependent support reactions via dynamic numerical analysis employing the Newmark method. Furthermore, the study encompasses the determination of static equivalent forces. It is noteworthy that the maximum displacement experienced by the structure coincides with the initial phase of blade movement.
