[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

ForWind inaugurated the WindLab on the Oldenburg campus in 2017. The centerpiece of the new building with 2,300 square meters of floor space is a turbulent wind tunnel that can be used to study the interaction of atmospheric flows with wind farms, wind turbines and their components. In this way, exact data on the operating behavior of wind turbines and large offshore wind farms are determined.<\/p>\n

The wind tunnel is used by physicists, meteorologists, oceanographers and engineering scientists from Carl von Ossietzky University Oldenburg<\/a> and Leibniz University Hannover<\/a>, Jade University of Applied Sciences<\/a>, the Fraunhofer Institute for Wind Energy and Energy System Technology<\/a> (Bremerhaven) and the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization<\/a> (G\u00f6ttingen).<\/p>\n

The acoustic wind tunnel from ForWind is a closed wind tunnel with a cross-section of 1 m x 0.8 m. It is soundproofed and can be operated either with a closed test section of 2.7 m or an open test section of 2.0 m in length at wind speeds of up to 50 m\/s. Various active grids can be used to generate customized wind conditions (emulated from atmospheric measurements or designed for specific turbulence characteristics). High-resolution measurement techniques (hot-wire, stereo PIV, 2D LDA, pressure sensors, force balances) can be used in various applications. Blade profiles can be tested for re-numbers up to 1,000,000. Model wind turbines with rotor diameters of up to 0.6 m are available for testing. <\/p>\n

Large wave flow channel (GWK+), Leibniz Universit\u00e4t Hannover<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The GWK+ has been the further development of the Large Wave Current Channel at the Coastal Research Center<\/a> since 2023. The Forschungszentrum K\u00fcste is an institution of the Leibniz Universit\u00e4t Hannover<\/a> and the Technische Universit\u00e4t Braunschweig<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With a new more powerful wave machine, larger waves and loads can be generated, which will allow even more realistic testing and further development of structures under extreme conditions. The waves are generated by a 7 m high dry back piston type wave flap, whose maximum stroke is 7.5 m. Thus, a maximum generatable wave height of approx. 3 m can be achieved. At the same time, the system is designed for active absorption of reflected waves.<\/p>\n

A flow generation facility can be used to generate tidal currents, for example, to study their loading on sediment stability and structures, and to consider and analyze nonlinear wave-current interactions. The flow facility consists of 2 inlet and outlet structures, respectively, 152 m apart. The flow is directed into the channel through an opening at the bottom. The flow profile can be optimized with individually controllable louvers in the openings.<\/p>\n

The generator-converter test bench (GeCoLab)<\/a> can be used to research both conventional and innovative converter and generator concepts, including converter-related control and filter design methods in the MW range. The implemented universal test bench enables the investigation of steady-state and dynamic properties of electrical machines and converters, including converter-machine interactions. This includes studies of dynamics and system stability, steady-state and transient thermal loading, various methods of grid injection and control, and behavior in the event of grid faults such as voltage dips, phase shorts, or ground faults. The test bench will also enable research into interactions between the converter and generator and their influence on other plant components such as bearings and gearboxes.<\/span><\/p>\n

In wind turbines, the power electronics must endure both the electrical loads and possible harsh environmental conditions. The combination of environmental stresses and electrical operating loads to which the power electronics are exposed is therefore crucial for the service life of the systems. Predicting the effect of these multimodal loads during the development phase is therefore of great importance for avoiding field failures and thus for the long-term success of the product. The laboratory for high-performance electronics HiPE-LAB<\/a> of the IALB at the University of Bremen offers the unique opportunity to expose entire frequency converters with outputs of up to 10 MVA to electrical and climatic loads in almost any combination and to carry out tests to predict important issues relating to service life. In the field of wind energy, we – as a member of ForWind – work closely with Fraunhofer IWES.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

In addition to free-field measurements and laboratory experiments, numerical simulations are an important pillar of current research questions. In this way, research achieves a comprehensive understanding of turbulent wind conditions and their interaction with wind energy systems. The high-performance computers at the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg<\/a> will profitably combine different modeling and simulation methods. This will enable the physical properties of the wind flow to be mapped even more precisely – both with regard to individual wind turbines and entire wind farms. <\/p>\n

The Marine Engineering Geology working group at the Center for Marine Environmental Sciences (MARUM)<\/a> at the University of Bremen is a member of ForWind. For this reason, a wide range of tasks in sediment mechanics and shelf geology are described and quantified in basic research using engineering geology, geotechnical, sedimentological and geophysical methods. Examples include determining relative stratigraphies using the degree of compaction, assessing slope stability, and measuring hydraulic permeabilities of shorelines and shelf sediments. Accordingly, the Transfer division focuses on the scientific support of industrial, geotechnical pilot projects and large-scale projects in the run-up to and during construction measures. The focus here is therefore on renewable energies and their offshore and onshore implementation (e.g. geotechnical support for offshore wind farm projects). <\/p>\n
