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
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 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 purpose of the project is to analyse and develop advanced filter solutions based on combinations of passive filters and active filters in wind power plants. The use of passive filters is almost
The project ” Multi-level medium voltage” converter is a development and demonstration project, which by proposing at new design aims at optimizing one of the most important subsystems in a wind
To learn how to build the hybrid UHPC tower in praxis and prepare the technology for commercialization. Further development to up-scale the towers to larger heights, to make the towers entirely from
Task 35 will focus on wind turbine blade and drive train testing and assess their performance and failure criteria in different operating scenarios. The subtasks are: l) Relevant wind turbine
Our objective is to demonstrate an efficient, rugged, low-cost lidar for wind turbine blade pitch control. The new sensor will monitor the wind in front of the turbine using 4 lines-of-sight. This
The purpose of the project is to investigate the future testing strategies for the leading wind turbine manufacturer, to design, develop, assemble and demonstrate the future testing facility to
The New European Wind Atlas wiII as a minimum include: wind resources and their associated uncertainty; extreme wind and uncertainty; turbulence characteristics; adverse weather conditions together
The project aims to develop a new node for offshore wind foundations. Objectives are: 1) New design for process and assembly of jacket foundations; 2) Cost-efficient welding of nodes; 3) Mass
The foundation for wind turbines at sea needs to withstand occational extreme waves. Extreme waves are a well known phenomenon, however the exact stress they put on under water foundations are not
The project objective is to test, verify and document the radar control installation aiming at defining the minimum requirements for this type of system capability. The project will also investigate
The objective of the project is on basis of participation in the IEA Task 29 MeXNext III to utilize the results from a new wind tunnel measurement campaign on a 4.5m rotor (summer 2014) for validation
