The present design and assessment of fatigue life for the small composite wind turbine blades (SCWTBs) can be certified by IEC 61400-2 “Wind Turbines - Part2: Design requirements of small wind turbines”. The paper will establish an analytical method on the fatigue life analysis of SCWTBs. Using the Microsoft Office EXCEL to calculate the maximum stress, minimum stress and stress ratio of the SCWTBs under the fatigue loading. Utilizing the above stress data, the Goodman diagram (GD-diagram) can be constructed by the Autodesk AutoCAD software. Finally, we can estimate the fatigue life of the SCWTBs.
