• Internship Trainee

  • Oct 2021 - Mar 2022

  1. Derived an initial draft of a 25 MW offshore horizontal axis reference wind turbine by aerodynamic and structural upscaling of an existing 15 MW reference turbine designed by International Energy Agency (IEA) and National Renewable Energy Laboratory, USA (NREL). 2. Investigated the draft with quasi-steady Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory at steady state wind and wave conditions. 3. Performed several design iterations and documented the final draft according to the WindIO ontology, which offers easy transferability to various simulation tools. Show less
