Simulations tools to enable Asset Life Extension (SALE)

风能行业需要更准确、更高效的工具来计算非稳定负荷。这些工具(供在职使用)将为收益率和资产寿命决策提供信息。它们将被用来降低运营和维护成本，因此LCoE。海洋阵列系统和离岸可再生能源弹射器已经赢得了Innovate UK的支持，因为他们的模拟启用资产寿命延长项目。这将(1)验证风力涡轮机/阵列的模拟工具，并(2)调查控制系统模块的可行性，以帮助场级管理湍流效应。使用风力涡轮机位置的(速度和负载)数据集，OAS的模拟能够实现现场特定的涡轮机性能预测，考虑湍流，为所有者提供工具，以实现资产寿命延长。

The wind energy industry needs more accurate and efficient tools to calculate unsteady loads. These tools (forin-service use) will inform yield and asset life decisions. They will be used to reduce O&M costs and hence LCoE.Ocean Array Systems and the Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult have won support from Innovate UK fortheir Simulation to enable Asset Life Extension project. This will (1) validate a simulation tool for wind turbines /arrays and (2) investigate the feasibility of a control systems module to aid farm-level management of turbulenteffects.Using (velocity and loads) data sets from wind turbine locations, OAS’ simulations enable site-specificpredictions of turbine performance, accounting for turbulence, providing owners with a tool to enable asset-life-extension.
