Job Description: Your PhD project is integrated in the second funding period of the Collaborative Research Centre 1463 Offshore Megastructures (www.sfb1463.uni-hannover.de/en/) of the German Research Foundation. In the first funding period, a novel concept for extremely large wind turbines, the so-called hybrid-lambda turbine, was developed and validated by simulations and wind tunnel experiments. The main objective of your PhD project is to advance the concept to the next level. This includes the development of control algorithms for individual wind turbines and for wind farms that improve energy capture and limit structural loads, while adapting to changing conditions of wind inflow, turbine health status and power market.
