1. 1. Feasibility Study of Wind Turbine Blades Constructed in 1300 MPa Fossil-Free Steel : Finite Element weight optimization with respect to structural integrity by Abaqus and Tosca Structure

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

   Author : Peter van der Brug; Sina Urban; [2022]
   Keywords : Abaqus; Tosca Structure; Wind Turbine Blade; Weight Optimization; High-Strength Steel; Fossil-Free; SSAB; Strenx 1300; DTU 10MW-RWT;

   Abstract : This study aims to perform a feasibility study on the DTU 10MW-RWT wind turbine blades constructed in the fossil-free high-strength steel 1300 MPa from SSAB. The acceptance criteria, on which the study is based, are taken from the DTU composite wind turbine model. A maximum weight of 41 000kg and a maximum tip displacement of 12.5 m are chosen. READ MORE

3. 2. Systematic optimisation of an existing fuel oil preheating system : Facilitating replacement of 5000 cSt oil with 74 500 cSt

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

   Author : Albin Fransson; Peter van der Brug; [2020]
   Keywords : Heat Exchanger; Shell; Tube; Plate; DFSS; Fuel Oil; Optimisation; Viscosity; Efficiency;

   Abstract : In order to increase the efficiency of a preheating system as temperatures increase, without using seawater as a coolant, an additional heat exchanger is required to be installed into the system. The purpose of the study is therefore to investigate how the temperatures of fuel oils can be increased while minimising the loss of energy and costs. READ MORE
