Dimensioning of offshore wind turbines. Experiences from offshore demonstration programs with a view to an improved integrated design procedure

This project, HAVDIM2004, aimed primarily at analysing already accessible measurement data from the two Danish offshore wind farms Horns Rev 1 and Nysted Offshore Wind Farm.

Project description
This project, HAVDIM2004, aimed primarily at analysing already accessible measurement data from the two Danish offshore wind farms Horns Rev 1 and Nysted Offshore Wind Farm. The project focused on Horns Rev 1, as the wind farm offered access to the most complete set of load measurements on rotor and nacelle, tower, foundation, sea conditions and wind. It proved extremely challenging to calibrate data and find data sets in which all sensors were accessible and reliable at the same time. The project makes available reliable data for the HAVDIM2005 project (PSO 6507) aimed at evaluating valid load calculation models.
