Training School in Entrainment of Wind Power

Project Details

Description

The Marie Curie Train2Wind project educates 13 PhD fellows and 5 short-term fellows. It deals with the question how many gigawatts of wind power can be installed in the North Sea without exhausting the wind resource. The scientific process under investigation is entrainment. The fellows use computer modelling, work in the wind tunnel, and measure using lidars, satellites and Unmanned Aerial Systems.
