AdVanced Aerodynamic Tools for lArge Rotors (AVATAR)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2013, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
The motivation for the AVATAR project lies in the fact that upscaling wind turbine designs towards 10-20 MW requires radical innovations to make this feasible. Many of these innovationshave a strong aerodynamic component and can be considered as unconventional from an aerodynamic point of view. As such the analysis of the resulting rotor designs falls outside the validated range of applicability o ...
