The project objective was to improve and consequently optimise the basis for design of offshore wind turbines. This was done through mapping of wind, wave, ice and current, by correlations of these
The project included the following milestones: 1) Wind tunnel measurements on a NACA 63-415 airfoil with a modified leading edge. 2) Detailed verification of 3D Computational Fluids Dynamics (CFD)
The project will contribute to the basis for connecting large wind farms to power transmission grids regarding voltage quality and power system stability.
On short term the aim with this project is to collect and analyse knowledge about wind and sea, to make it possible to make the tenders for the first offshore wind farms ultimo 1999. In finalised form
