Wind turbine measurement technique—an open laboratory for educational purposes

Velocity Adjustable Wind Turbine Simulator based onActual Wind Generator for Laboratory Use

The objective of this research is (1) to design and construct the wind turbine simulator based on the adjustable actual wind speed. (2) To investigate the wind distribution, and (3) tobe applied for testing the power output of the micro-wind turbine in the laboratory. Design and CAD drawing was applied to construct the wind turbine simulator prototype.The 3 phase induction motor with axial fan ...

Nonlinear Dynamic Inversion Control for Wind Turbine Load Mitigation based on Wind Speed Measurement

The design of an advanced controller for wind turbine load mitigation is presented. The controller is based on Nonlinear Dynamic Inversion control methods combined with Pseudo Control Hedging to account for the actuator limits and a two degree of freedom control system for the collective pitch control of the rotor blades. The controller uses wind speed measurement information to adjust to wind ...

Filleting XP for Educational Purposes

Rather than teaching XP as a software development method, we have found that some of XP’s core practices are actually viable learning scenarios. By combining these practices into a set of regulations, we have organized a well-received 200 h software practical regularly conducted during the 4 semester of an applied informatics curriculum.

Wind turbine model validation: Fusion of simulation and measurement data

A new turbine model validation technique that is based on adaptation of look-up tables is described this paper. Simulation results from the VIDYN turbine simulation program and measurements from Big Glenn wind turbine, located outside Gothenburg, Sweden are used as an input to this new model validation technique. The models of the flapwise bending moment and power coefficient are validated for ...
