Supporting technologies for wind turbine and wind farm simulation and control

Supporting technologies for wind turbine and wind farm simulation and control

  • Estimation of aerodynamic properties from experimental data. In this picture: improvement of force coefficient (C_F) prediction as function of Tip-Speed-Ratio (TSR) and pitch setting (β).

  • Observation of yaw misalignment from rotor loads.

  • Reduction of maximum tower base fore-aft load with optimal shut-down management.
