DTU Wind and Energy Systems and DHI have jointly developed and tested an open-jet wind generator designed for floating wind turbine experiments. In combination with DHI’s wave basin, the facility enables testing of floating wind turbines in the +20 MW class under combined wind and wave conditions, including turbulence. During a recent spring test campaign, the system’s performance was documented and used to evaluate a design variant of the TetraSub floating foundation developed by Stiesdal Offshore. The wind generator comprises 25 synchronised fans that collectively reproduce the turbulent wind inflow experienced offshore, allowing turbulence to be physically recreated in a controlled laboratory environment.
