The hoisting forces on a 38.5m wind turbine blade in multiple positions are computed using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The computation model is constructed with the steady wind conditions, blade mesh model and the blade positions which are determined by the blade pitch angle, azimuth angle and rotor yaw angle. The maximal and minimal hoisting forces in three-dimensional coordinates are found and the corresponding pitch angle, azimuth angle and yaw angle are obtained. The change of the hoisting forces on wind turbine blades is analyzed. Suggestions are given to decrease the hoisting forces of the blade in open wind environment.
