Deliverables

Documents, reports (4)

Interim report on best practice guidelines for modelling loads and performance

The report will contain guidelines and recommendations for how to assess the sensitivity of inflow conditions and rotor modelling on the resulting loads and performance of the wind turbine. It includes Task 4.1-4.4 and covers both offshore and airborne wind power, and includes stand-alone wind turbines as well as wind turbines in wind farms.

Interim report on characterisation & modelling of inflow & wake turbulence

This is a report detailing the interim results of the work of the tasks in WP3 to characterise and model inflow and wake turbulence. The intention of this deliverable is to provide a progress report on the work approximately mid-way through WP3 to identify the most promising approaches.

Knowledge and data hub with documentation concerning workflows

With this deliverable, functionalities of the knowledge and data hub will be provided to users, together with the documentation. The information regarding simulation and analysis workflows, for which the hub can be utilized, will be included as well. The deliverable will cover activities of all the tasks in the work package 2. The first version will be published in month 24, followed by the update in month 48.

Report on data standardisation and metadata templates

This report will document task 2.2’s data management efforts associated with findability and interoperability. An overview of the developed metadata template will be given. In addition, activities regarding data standardization necessary for ensuring interoperability will be reported as well

Data sets, microdata, etc (1)

Database of pre-existing meteorological data sources suitable for inflow and wake turbulence modelling

A database will be created of preexisting meteorological data based on publicly available sources of relevance to inflow and turbulence modelling for wind turbines and wind farms
