A wind turbine over 100 m high has been simulated at 1 GHz by IEEA with the POGO method. This technique takes second order interactions into account. This is the case of interactions between blades, between each blade and the nacelle and between the nacelle and the tower. A mesh of 1 300 000 triangles was used. The computation took less than 2 minutes of CPU time. This fast simulation makes it possible to study the effect of the rotation of the turbine.
