PhD Positions Cluster Wake Control
3 maanden geleden
As pioneers in the field of wind turbine and wind farm control, we are looking for ambitious PhD candidates to join our research group on the new topic of Cluster Wake Control Job description
Wind turbines packed in large offshore wind farms hinder each other by the formation of turbulent wind wakes, which lead to large efficiency losses at downstream turbines. With the growing number and attention for wind farms, it becomes clear that the wake effect is not only present on a turbine-to-turbine level, but also on a farm-to-farm level. On a wind farm level the energy extraction by each individual turbine cumulates, leaving a pronounced wake in the downstream region, the so-called cluster wakes.
Wind turbine wakes have been studied extensively and the state-of-the-art includes various strategies for mitigating their effects on downstream turbines, amongst others accelerating the wake recovery by dynamically exciting the blade pitch angles, known as Active Wake Mixing (AWM). In contrast, the collective wake of an entire wind turbine cluster is not yet fundamentally well understood, and no strategies have yet been presented to mitigate this. However, the effect of cluster wakes on the power generation of neighboring wind farms is expected to be of major importance considering the extent of planned offshore wind farms and their proximity to each other. In the CLUSTERWAKE project, we will study the novel concept of Active Cluster Wake Mixing (ACWM), which is capable of decreasing the length of the wake downstream of the wind farm. Active Cluster Wake Mixing generates dynamic force patterns over the wind farm, by adapting the thrust of the individual turbines. These patterns are designed to trigger instabilities of the wind farm cluster wake.
Within the CLUSTERWAKE project we will have two open positions: one with a focus on the aerodynamics and high fidelity simulations of active cluster wakes and the second with a focus on the control system (the optimal pattern to trigger the instabilities). Requirements
The successful candidate has the following qualifications:
An MSc. degree in systems and control, fluid dynamics wind energy, aeroelastics, mechatronics, applied mathematics, mechanical engineering, or a related field. The capacity to communicate effectively with peers, students and stakeholders in the application field Good programming skills are a plus: MATLAB, Python, Git Fluency in English An open personality and good communication skills in written and spoken English. Doing a PhD at TU Delft requires English proficiency at a certain level to ensure that the candidate is able to communicate and interact well, participate in English-taught Doctoral Education courses, and write scientific articles and a final thesis. Conditions of employmentDoctoral candidates will be offered a 4-year period of employment in principle, but in the form of 2 employment contracts. An initial 1,5 year contract with an official go/no go progress assessment within 15 months. Followed by an additional contract for the remaining 2,5 years assuming everything goes well and performance requirements are met.
Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities, increasing from € 2770 per month in the first year to € 3539 in the fourth year. As a PhD candidate you will be enrolled in the TU Delft Graduate School. The TU Delft Graduate School provides an inspiring research environment with an excellent team of supervisors, academic staff and a mentor. The Doctoral Education Programme is aimed at developing your transferable, discipline-related and research skills.
The TU Delft offers a customisable compensation package, discounts on health insurance, and a monthly work costs contribution. Flexible work schedules can be arranged.
For international applicants, TU Delft has the Coming to Delft Service. This service provides information for new international employees to help you prepare the relocation and to settle in the Netherlands. The Coming to Delft Service offers a Dual Career Programme for partners and they organise events to expand your (social) network. TU Delft (Delft University of Technology)

Challenge. Change. Impact Faculty Mechanical Engineering
From chip to ship. From machine to human being. From idea to solution. Driven by a deep-rooted desire to understand our environment and discover its underlying mechanisms, research and education at the ME faculty focusses on fundamental understanding, design, production including application and product improvement, materials, processes and (mechanical) systems.
ME is a dynamic and innovative faculty with high-tech lab facilities and international reach. It’s a large faculty but also versatile, so we can often make unique connections by combining different disciplines. This is reflected in ME’s outstanding, state-of-the-art education, which trains students to become responsible and socially engaged engineers and scientists. We translate our knowledge and insights into solutions to societal issues, contributing to a sustainable society and to the development of prosperity and well-being. That is what unites us in pioneering research, inspiring education and (inter)national cooperation.
