The project is based on a previously tested 1:40 model of a new type of wave energy converter, which has so far shown good properties. The objective of the project is to measure loads on the
The project aims at developing a meteorological software tool for large wind farm planning. The project is based on data from previous projects on large wind farm shadow effect. The existing tools
The project focuses on a theoretical and experimental study of floating platforms for wind turbines, wave power systems and the relationship between wind and wave power. The project basis is the
The first step is to combine a hydrodynamic model of the waves with a dynamic model for the mechanical and hydraulic PTO system to achieve an understanding of the principles behind optimising energy
Optimization of power production and reliability of the Wave Star prototype in Hanstholm. The funding is given as a temporary additional per production hour, and is activated by attainment of
The project will test the abilities of the wave wing as an energy absorber. The test will be performed in the wave tank at AAU following preparation of measuring setup, component list and plan for
The cooperation project is conducted with a PhD study as its central element and its research will be used directly in wind turbine and wnd farm development so as to prepare common guidelines under
Acoustic measurements will be performed at various degrees of wake using several measuring techniques. The results will be compared with aerodynamic measurements to enhance knowledge of wind turbine
In this project, by means of computer simulations, flow conditions of wing tips were investigated for a number of wing designs for wind turbines. Various numeric design methodologies were developed
For the first time ever, this project integrated three design areas in a simulation: electrical design and
optimisation of wind turbines (generator and gearbox), aerodynamic design (material and
This project developed methods and tools for modelling various ruptured wind turine blades and for analysing the residual strength of the blades if they crack. This provides a foundation for assessing
This project involved the first two phases in establishing a knowledge centre for wind turbine components. In the first phase, the knowledge centre was officially established, and it was decided that
The project aims to provide the necessary basis for deciding to establish a knowledge centre promoting Danish innovation in the field of wind turbine components. The purpose of the tesst centre will
The project endeavoured to calculate electricity generation costs in modern onshore wind turbines. At average operating costs of DKK 0.08/0.10/kWh, production costs per kWh can be calculated at DKK 0
To extend the life of gear oil - not least for use in offshore wind turbiens - the project aims to investigate whether nano-filtration using CJC filters (cellulose fibres) with zeolites eliminates the
The project constituted a phase of the strategic partnership between Risø DTU and the wind turbine industry on developing an aeroelastic design complex. The project worked with the following issues
Aalborg University and Risø/DTU have developed a model to estimate responses and structural reliability of wind turbines under normal operation. Various Monte Carlo simulation algorithms were tested
The pier-based Wave Star Energy test system is now ready for installation at Roshage pier in Hanstholm. For security reasons, the unit was moved into open waters west of the pier. A high footbridge
This project has validated the use of the noise prediction model Nord2000 for more detailed noise prediction from wind farms compared to conventional methods like the ISO 9613-2.
