Project overview:

Computational Control Co-design Approach for Offshore Wind Farm Optimization

Awardee:

Stony Brook University

Start Date:

Q3, 2020

Technical Challenge Area:

Fixed Structure Engineering

Completion Date:

N/A (Currently Underway) 

Synopsis:

This project will develop and validate a novel modeling tool integrating high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models with atmospheric and ocean physics models and turbine control schema.

Target Outcomes:

1
An open-source reduced order model (ROM) allowing practical analysis of the effects of real-life wind and wave conditions on turbines and arrays, with consideration of turbine control strategies such as yaw-based wake steering and individual or collective pitch control.
