This main objective of this project is to demonstrate procedures that can quantify the risk of failure, the remaining structural reliability and the maintenance costs upon extending the life of
The long-term goals of OES Task 10 are:
1. To assess the accuracy and establish confidence in the use of numerical WEC models
2. To determine a range of validity of existing computational modelling
IEA Wind Task 28” on Social Acceptance of Wind Energy Projects is a working group involving several countries, including the USA, Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, Japan, Ireland, Italy and the
Because these hours are incoherent and unpredictable, a constant availability of power is imperative and as a result the generator has to be operating around the clock. Thus Power Pack will contribute
A wind turbine power converter includes power modules mounted on cooling plates, which cool the component. The heat is transferred to the ambient by use of a water circuit and an air cooler. The
The long-term goals of OES are:
1. To assess and establish confidence in the use of Wave Energy Converters
2. To engage and integrate Danish industry in international initiatives
3. To identify
The project has generally the aim to support Denmark's participation in the "IEA Wind Energy R & D Implementing Agreement" in 2018 through participation as Alternate member in the Agreement Steering
The project will design and test innovative blade tips for wind turbines which can increase the existing rotor size, producing up to 8% more energy per year, while regulating loads in a smart way.
Every wind farm project requires accurate resource assessments to evaluate the energy yield and profitability, but for projects in hilly, mountainous or forested areas the measurement campaigns can be
Small cracks in wind turbine bearings are responsible for some of the most expensive wind turbine failures. Today, there are no certain methods of preventing the cracks, but a new project led by DTU
The objectives of this project is to improve on the current practice of basing performance evaluation on a single point measurement of wind speed and instead introduce a method where the wind field
This project has investigated noise emissions from large-scale wind turbines in relation to small-scale wind turbines. In addition, noise nuisance at low frequencies was investigated, noise
The aim of the project is to develop a simulation platform for generation of relevant wind fields applicable for aeroelastic design simulations. This is achieved by development, verification, and
The annex will give the participants an overview of the technical and environmental assessment challenges encountered in offshore applications and help them to understand the areas of further R and D
The present R and D will be used to build a 1:10 scale model of a single AquaBuOY and test and measure its performance in a range of sea conditions at the testsite in Nissum Bredning on 5 meters deep
The wind farm output of an offshore-farm such as Horns Rev changes between nearly constant output to highly variable power output. A balance responsible would benefit from knowing the variability of a
The object of the project was to determine the wave impact on wind turbines and test ways to reduce such impacts. The project showed that all major wave loads are caused by breaking waves and that
The project developed a computer method for quantifying wind turbine structural loads caused by fault ride-through (FRT) requirements. Exemplified in the case of an active stall wind turbine this
