  • No access 5.04.4235 - Design of Wind Energy Systems Show lecturers
    • Prof. Dr. Martin Kühn

    Thursday: 12:00 - 14:00, weekly (from 05/04/18)
    Dates on Thursday, 18.10.2018 16:00 - 18:00
    The students attending the course will have the possibility to expand and sharpen of their knowledge about wind turbine design from the basic courses. The lectures include topics covering the whole spectrum from early design phase to the operation of a wind turbine. Students will learn in exercises how to calculate and evaluate design aspects of wind energy converters. At the end of the lecture, they should be able to: + estimate the site specific energy yield, + calculate the aerodynamics of wind turbines using the blade element momentum theory, + model wind fields to obtain specific design situations for wind turbines, + estimate the influence of dynamics of a wind turbine, especially in the context of fatigue loads, + transfer their knowledge to more complex topics such as simulation and measurements of dynamic loads, + calculate the economic aspects of wind turbines. Introduction to industrial wind turbine design, + rotor aerodynamics and Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory, + dynamic loading and system dynamics, + wind field modelling for fatigue and extreme event loading, + design loads and design aspects of onshore wind turbines, + simulation and measurements of dynamic loads, + design of offshore wind turbines, + power quality and grid integration on wind turbines.
  • No access 5.04.4236 - Aeroelastic Simulation of Wind Turbines Show lecturers

    Tuesday: 16:00 - 18:00, weekly (from 03/04/18)
    A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to: o understand the basic concept of an aero-servo-elastic computer code to determine the unsteady aerodynamic loads, o derive and validate the required parameters to model the aero-hydro-elastic response of a wind turbine, o identify and interpret the required empirical parameters to correct the blade element momentum (BEM) method with respect to dynamic inflow, unsteady airfoil aerodynamics (dynamic stall), yawed flow, dynamic wake modeling, o explain the effects of the different models on the resulting time series and validate the code, o interpret design standards for on- and offshore wind turbines, select the required load cases according to site-specific environmental data, o identify the dimensioning load cases and calculate design loads for different main components of a wind turbine. Contents: The course focuses on the practical implications and hands-on experience of the aero-hydro-servo-elastic modelling and simulation of wind turbines. The subjects are similar but the treatment is complementary to the parallel course ‘Design of Wind Energy Systems’, which deals with the underlying theo-retical background: o advanced wind field modelling for fatigue and extreme event loading, o modelling of wind farm flow and wake effects, o rotor aerodynamics (e.g. stationary or dynamic effects, comparison of Blade Element Momentum theory and more advanced methods like free vortex methods or CFD), o structural dynamics and dynamic modelling of wind tur-bine structures (modelling by ordinary or partial differential equations, stochastics, multi body system modelling), o advanced control of wind turbines, o design standards, design loads and design aspects of offshore and onshore wind turbines. The students analyse in pairs a model of an entire wind turbine with the aid of a typical wind turbine design tool like GH Bladed, Flex5 or Aerodyn/FAST.

Notes on the module
Prerequisites
Acc. selected course
Module examination
Assignments may consist of case studies, practical reports, or reviews of recent research Material is introduced through lectures, laboratories, and directed reading and research. Students are given guidance on how to manage their learning, and at each stage in their development they are expected to take responsibility for their own learning.

Skills to be acquired in this module
The acquisition of knowledge and the strategy for understanding the subject topics is achieved through taught lectures, supervised laboratory sessions, tutorials, seminars, practical demonstrations and personal study presentations on coursework assignments. This module enables the students to emphasize on a field of specialisation in Engineering Physics at the cutting edge of research.
