OFFSHORE RENEWABLE ENERGY
Looking beyond research and connect with the wider offshore wind industry. Catapult is appraising the wind rider technology and identify cost saving features.
The National Manufacturing Institute Scotland
Driving the future of manufacturing through innovation. NMIS is accelerating productivity to grow our economy, develop a vibrant workforce, and create happier, healthier, greener communities.
空气动力学数值模拟
DNV uses its own industry leading software BLADED to perform aerodynamics numeric simulations to model and analyze the flow of air around the unique design of the wind rider system to quantify the wind load reduction thus provides valuable input for design optimisation in reducing aerodynamic impact to the support systems in fixed or floating foundations.
风洞测试
布里斯托大学将利用其一座风洞进行缩比模型测试，以在模拟环境中验证该设计。图片显示风洞有一个 2.1 米 x 1.5 米的八角形测试段，最大流速为 60 米/秒。风洞平衡系统可以对各种大型航空部件进行气动载荷测量。
结构设计
WeBridge is specialied at optimal design of tower and foundation system as well as the fabrication of offshore turbine foundation.
轴承验证
University of Strathclyde will be involved in the validation and optimisation of the bearing design of the rotating base.
