Kompetenzziele | The "Wind Physics Student's Lab" aims to foster the learning process by own research activities of the students in wind physics and additionally to build up skills for scientific and experimental work and scientific writing. Therefore, this course is also intended as preparation for the master thesis. The course is organized as seminar with integrated work in the laboratory. The students will investigate an individual, self-formulated research question and will be guided by the supervisors through the research-based learning process. The work in groups and discussion of solutions aims to improve skills in team working. In order to introduce the students to current wind energy research, the course is offered in three versions. These versions represent the work of the three research groups at ForWind - University Oldenburg. |
Modulinhalte | The seminar \Dynamics and control of grid-connected wind turbines\ is related to the work of the research group Wind Energy Systems (WESys). It intends to give a deeper insight into two elds of wind engineering: One is the grid connection and interaction of wind turbines and the other is their operational control as special case in the eld of control engineering. The seminar uses an experimental system which allows to investigate control tasks and interaction mechanisms of the functional chain of wind eld, rotor, drive train, generator, transformer and electric grid. The seminar consists of three main phases: 1st phase: Preparational learning
ow" is connected to the scientific work of the research group Turbulence, Wind Energy and Stochastics (TWIST). In this seminar, turbulent wind elds and their e ects on wind turbines will be investigated. Students learn to measure wind flows in high resolutions and how turbulence can be described, investigated and evaluated for different purposes. The students gain a deep understanding of the phenomenonof turbulence. They perform own experiments in a wind tunnel with an active turbulence grid. They learn to establish their own research questions and are encouraged to develop own methods. The seminar consists of three main phases: 1st phase: Preparational learning
