Study Subject(s):Electromechanical Drivetrain Simulation
Course Level:PhD
Scholarship Provider: DTU
Scholarship can be taken at: Denmark
Eligibility:
Candidates should have a master’s degree in engineering or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to the master’s degree. Experience with wind energy, as well as good communication skills are considered advantageous for obtaining the position.
Scholarship Open for International Students: No
Scholarship Description: The project will focus on the electromechanical interaction between the rotor and drivetrain loads and the responses of different components of the drivetrain, along with experimental testing to develop new conceptual designs of the drivetrain with improved reliability. The drivetrain model from the main bearing to the generator is modeled as a flexible multibody system with appropriate generator controls based on a SIMULINK interface. Load cases with extreme drivetrain events such as grid loss, emergency stops, as well as turbulent wind fatigue loads are studied under typical field conditions for a multi-MW machine. Optimization of the drivetrain design for maximum fatigue life within extreme load design constraints is done.
