DTU Wind Energy offers a new 1-day course. The course will focus on the use of Doppler lidar for wind measurements for offshore wind energy application.
On 25 November 2019, DTU Wind Energy offers a 1-day course on Lidars for Offshore Wind Measurements. It is the first time; DTU Wind Energy offers this course.
The course addresses wind engineers who want to use wind lidars for offshore wind energy projects and wish to have a good understanding of the technology, its advantages and limitations.
The objectives of the course are:
- Understand the measurement principle of a Doppler wind lidar (continuous wave and pulsed technologies)
- Understand the difference between turbulence measured by a Doppler wind lidar and a sonic anemometer and how to use turbulence measurement from lidars (for vertical profiler lidars and nacelle mounted lidars)
- Use wind lidars for offshore wind turbine performance testing (including nacelle lidars and scanning lidars on turbine Transition Piece – pros/cons and challenges).
- Use floating lidars for offshore wind resource assessment (pros/cons and challenges).
- Know the status of best practice and international standards.
