🌪 AI-based simulators for wind turbine optimization🌪 As renewable energy advances, wind turbines play a crucial role in the global transition to sustainable energy by converting the kinetic energy of the wind into clean electricity. However, understanding the dynamics of wind turbines poses challenges due to the perpetually shifting wind directions and speeds, prompting our research team to work on grasping simulations for optimizing wind turbines. This blog post delves into wind turbine simulation and its complexities.

morewind consulting is supporting wind asset owners and operators to handle loading and lifetime aspects of their wind turbines. We contribute with an approach combining data science and physical wind turbine modelling to analytically estimate the remaining lifetime of the wind turbine components. We provide rough estimates based on generic wind turbine models or more accurate calculations leveraged by various types of measurements, reverse engineering activities and structural analysis. We provide solutions for monitoring the lifetime consumption during regular operation or for analytical End-of-Life assessment. This supports the decision making between continued operation with eventual component exchange and repowering. It can also help to estimate the old components value after dismantling when these are supposed to be re-used on another wind farm. The whole process can also be used in case of major upgrades done to the turbines like blade modifications or controller system replacement. #windenergy #offshorewind #renewables #datascience #simulation

Check out our latest publication on vertical-axis wind turbine wake interaction! Our study uses rigorous numerical modeling methodologies to analyze the influence of turbine placement optimization, spacing, and direction of rotation on the performance of large wind turbines. We used two-dimensional CFD models based on the Star CCM+ package to investigate wind farm configurations for very large turbines and found that CFD simulations adequately capture the performance of wind turbines on farms with multiple VAWTs. Our research shows that a second rotor spaced more than 10 turbine diameters downstream of the first rotor leads to a less significant effect on the wake. Additionally, a specific farm configuration with five VAWTs shows a 20% increase in power output compared to the same number of turbines operating in isolation. #WindEnergy #RenewableEnergy #ResearchHighlight #VAWT #VerticalAxisWindTurbine #CFD #Building #GreenEnergy #Simulation #StarCCM+ Check out the full study here: https://lnkd.in/eDhm7Qau.

Of all the many many countless dozens of countless of things that I’ve learned about software engineering solutions in renewable energy, and especially AI in renewable energy, by far the most fascinating has to have been that we can use AI to make our energy infrastructure efficient. I had not thought of this before. To think that we can use AI data-driven predictions, to not only spot maintenance faults before they happen, but to DRIVE and IMPROVE the efficiency and outputs of renewable energy infrastructures is just fascinating to me. For example, the fact that you can use data from wind turbines to try and think about how you can make wind farms more efficient in the future. And all the other things: substations, pylons, solar panels, hydroelectric power plants, and wave/tidal resources, amongst others. Isn’t that just fascinating?! But especially the wind farms 😏 I love the thought of using data-driven AI predictions to improve the efficiency of wind turbines 🥰🥰🥰🥰 🥰🥰🥰😍🥰🥰🥰😍🥰🥰🥰 #ai #renewableenergy #renewables #software #softwareengineer #windfarm #windfarms
