The proposed project will investigate a new wind power system, includiing a direct drive low speed Switched Reluctance Generator (DL-SRG) and a DC network connecting the DL-SRGs. It is expected that
By collaboration between Danish and Chinese experts in wind turbine aerodynamics, optimisation and control, and atmospheric turbulence, aim is to develop an integrated apporach, which provides
The goal of this project is to create a scientific basis for the development of advanced, strong materials for wind blades by optimising their structures at microlevel. This goal is achieved by
We propose to further the availability of high quality bio-oils for transportation and energy use. The focus is on locally available biomass resources, in Denmark and China, and the selection of
Wind turbine components such as gears and naves are exposed to large and very dynamic loads. The typical modes of production have difficulties handling this. REWIND focuses on materials, processes
A major technical development is required if Danish heat and power plants are to replace fossil fuels with biomass in the future. GREEN will facilitate this development by optimizing the agricultural
Accumulation of excess hydrogen in the production of biogas from manure is a problem, because it slows down the process. HYCON investigates the influence and distribution of hydrogen in the conversion
Waste as a flexible energy source and wast recycling are important elements of a greener society. TOPWASTE will develop new and advance existing models for planning the treatment of waste, in part
The project aims to optimise existing solutions to the yaw mechanism for wind turbines, improve properties with regard to noise, fatigue and peak load, wear and service.
The project develops a simulation platform, including wind, wind turbine main components and power grid. The platform will enable the study of wind turbine performance, and will support key components
What causes cracks and damage on different length scales to become major cracks and damage which may develop into fractures in e.g. the blade of a wind turbine? DCCSM tests this aspect through
The project is implemented by the Danish part of a consortium of partners from Sweden, Germany, Denmark, Norway, Finland and Estonia, and is a project of the N-INNER program. The aim was to develop
The stringent European and Danish environmental regulations represent a significant challenge for the livestock industry and demand the development of cost-effective mitigation technologies. The new
The Centre conducts basic research in wind turbine aerodynamics and wind turbulence with emphasis on their interaction. The aim is to develop reliable and verified simulation tools for design and
In the lifespan of a wind turbine, the gearbox is replaced on average four times due to wear and tear. All together this is almost the cost of a new turbine.
In June 2011, a hitherto unparalleled demonstra- tion of wind lidar performance was obtained in the calibrated wind tunnel belonging to LM Wind Power, Kolding Denmark:
The objective is to improve the design basis for large wind turbines by measuring wind and turbulence profiles at high altitude above a flat ground using modern instruments. The project will study
The focus of the centre consists of several pioneering techniques for understanding the relationship between biomass structure, proteins and process stages needed to convert it to mainly liquid energy
The vision is that the increased research on main wind turbine uncertainties and risk & reliability will lead to less conservative designs and more cost-efficient wind energy. Therefore, careful
