<p>There is something wonderfully simple about a wind turbine gently turning in the breeze. </p><p>As the wind flows by the blades of the turbine, a rotating force is created that spins the giant assembly. The rotation is then <a href="https://www.energy.gov/eere/wind/how-do-wind-turbines-work">converted into electricity</a> just like conventional power generation. </p><p>A wind turbine consists of a set of three blades defined by twisting and bending teardrop-like shapes. The turbine blades are cylindrical on one edge and sharper at the other. </p>

<p>The blade surface changes over its long, slender axis. It begins with blunt, thick shapes at the hub and transforms into slender, thin teardrop shapes at the tip. (See the blade graphic above for a closer look at the changing sequence of shapes moving from the hub on the left side to the tip on the right side.) Hence, a turbine spinning in the wind may seem simple, but designing and measuring blades of a wind turbine, using a sequence of changing cross-sectional shapes, requires a lot of sophisticated geometry. </p><p>I’m part of a team studying abstractions of geometric methods to design better wind turbines with mathematics. In the future, we hope to use our methods to measure how well wind turbines work in the field and how well they are made. </p><p>Design and measurement are intertwined, so addressing the challenges of both will push us toward a cleaner energy future. </p><p>Using the laws of physics, we can build computer models to predict how air flowing around the blades of a spinning turbine generates power. When the surface of the blade changes, the forces that rotate the turbine also change. </p><p>Modeling how these forces change when the surface changes is a subject of aerodynamics. Aerodynamic design of a turbine blade’s shape is crucial to maximizing the power out of each turbine, just as an airplane’s wings must be designed to keep us aloft during flight.</p><p>Two of the most important forces acting on aerodynamic surfaces are called lift and drag. The force defying gravity using an aircraft wing is the same that spins a turbine — we call it lift. Perpendicular to lift, the force that works to slow the aircraft or turbine’s rotation is called drag. </p><p>With physics-based models, we can study how to best design the cross-sectional shapes of <a href="https://www.energy.gov/eere/wind/articles/case-study-airfoils-where-turbine-meets-wind">turbine blades called airfoils</a>. You can see some examples of wind turbine airfoils shown in the graphic. The solid, black outlines of cross-sections are airfoils. They are like slices taken from a giant blade-shaped loaf of bread. Better airfoil shapes create more lift with less drag. </p><p>While an aircraft wing has control surfaces that the pilot can change, a turbine blade’s airfoil shapes remain fixed. For wind turbines, the outer portion generates the most lift, while the inner portion supports the spinning blade. So improved airfoil shapes with greater lift near the tip and less drag near the hub equals more power. </p><p>The final blade surface, defined by a sequence of airfoil shapes, then needs to be manufactured, put into operation, and measured during operation. How we represent the shape for design has big implications on how we should measure it in operation. And tackling challenges through measurement science is what NIST does.</p><p>For NIST, the big question is: How do we measure and mathematically define shape? Can our work be used to design and measure the best possible wind turbine?</p><h2>Geometry Makes the Turbine Go Round</h2> <figure class=" align-center nist-image" role="group">

<p>Working alongside the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), we’re developing new methods to describe and generate these complicated airfoil shapes to create next-generation designs and augment measurements in the field. </p><p>As a first step, we’ve tackled the turbine blade design problem. Our goal is to get the most efficient power generation, while satisfying size constraints to meet structural requirements. I’ll explain this using a few highlights from the scientific method. </p><p><strong>The hypothesis:</strong> Separating rotation and size of each airfoil from all other changes in the shapes can help improve designs and measurements, with fewer total numbers that modify the shape’s representation in the computer, which we refer to as parameters. The parameters are what we modify to change the shapes. The more you have, the more complex the math problem becomes. Traditional approaches need anywhere from 100-200 parameters in total to define a blade! </p><p>The concept is simple. If we want precise control over specific changes, like rotation and size of each airfoil, we then “divide these effects out” mathematically and study whatever is left over as learned from data. Fewer parameters make it significantly easier for us to understand changes in the design. </p><p>Our <a href="/publications/separable-shape-tensors-aerodynamic-design" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="2bae6cdb-448e-49db-baae-1a5d039dc7db" data-entity-substitution="canonical" title="Separable Shape Tensors for Aerodynamic Design">applied geometric approach</a> provides a new method for defining and exploring this concept with airfoil shapes learned from NREL shape data.</p><p><strong>The experiment:</strong> The design approach taken at NREL involves solving one of the hardest problems in math — an inverse problem. An inverse problem sets the desired outputs by saying we need “XYZ” aerodynamics. We then work backward through the modeled physics to determine a collection of airfoils that satisfy the requested aerodynamics. Inverse problems are something NIST mathematicians consider all the time for measurement, and they can be very challenging problems to solve — if we can solve them at all!</p><p>First, we generate tens of thousands of new shapes from our geometry model trained using NREL shape data. Then, we use physics-based models to predict aerodynamics of each shape. Finally, our colleagues at NREL train the AI to tell the geometry model how to achieve new designs with requested aerodynamics based on the generated data. This effectively “closes the loop” in the analysis.</p><p><strong>The results:</strong> NREL has successfully used the geometric methods in a <a href="https://github.com/NREL/G2Aero">tool called G2Aero</a> and generated new wind turbine designs to <a href="https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/2265/4/042052">reduce the cost of energy</a> — more on this later. Additionally, we trust the results of the AI because we have carefully constructed the description of the shapes, so the AI only makes recommendations about new shapes represented in our way. Most importantly, our geometry method prevents the AI from creating wild wiggling shapes that are not well suited for creating desirable aerodynamics or physics modeling. </p><p>Not only that, but the traditional approach involving hundreds of parameters was reduced to using just<em> four parameters to describe an entire blade</em>! This is due entirely to our data-driven geometry model — not the AI. With such a dramatic reduction in the total number of parameters, we can more easily train the AI. We can also put better checks and balances (constraints) on the AI recommendations and compare with alternative approaches for mapping requirements to parameters.</p><p><strong>Next steps:</strong> This research has a lot of exciting future applications. For example, wind turbines are often monitored remotely and serviced only when a problem is discovered — especially if those turbines are offshore. We hope to augment remo

I think eolic generation is fundamental for mitigation of climate change ( hope also CCS technology evolves significantly to help out...). As a curious mathematician I have questioned some friends about the closest irrational number to square root of 2 . Replies differ a lot. Can you help? Thanks<br />

<div class="text-long"><p>Were the NIST models compared to actual shapes and actual flows over static or better rotating, pre-coned, pitched, flexing blades of wind turbines operating under loads of wind tunnelactual winds and its vertical shear?<br />
|
|||
|
|
If not, how do we know the use of the models? Can it model effectively noise from passing the tower, and fatigue, or power/torque/axial force? there seems to be a good idea here but no verification versus the real world which is so in need of real turbines that really work efficiently and reliably.<br />
|
|||
|
|
We need real focus on real world turbine issues, and real replacements for the fossil fuels that are cooking use.<br />
|
|||
|
|
Is there any real-world comparison data for this work, and its fit residuals showing this technique really is good and will help anyone, not static but dynamic situations, for design, fatigue, monitoring, anything? Will it help design massive offshore turbines expected in the future, which may be downwind perhaps floating and precessing, and highly flexible blades?<br />
|
|||
|
|
Thanks for consideration. I mean no disrespect, more that the world desperately needs real soluations in huge quantities, to supply the 12-18 Terawatts_electrical, average,(isn't that about right?) that the planet will need. If just 25% were from wind, at 33% CF, we will need equivalent of 1 Million 10-MW turbines, plus energy storage. So we need real tools and solutions, that really provide cost reduction and reliability. Or billions of innocent people will, suffer, be displaced, be exploited, starve, while our planet cooks, we gets covered in sulfate crystals..</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>I would NIST work on the crucial enormous inverse problem being worked on by Trancik Lab at MIT, etc.<br />
|
|||
|
|
How do you supply, inexpensively and then returning revenue, fairly wrt land,people, and 100% fossil-free(!), 12-Terawatt_elec and a similar amount more for industry(another 12TWelec swappable to say 36TW_thermal)? It is a huge crucial problem of maximizing cuts in methane and CO2e. </p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Also it seems a first priority is stopping the huge fossil methane leak, and that of CFCs, right right away. How can this be done as fast and completley as possible?</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>How do we manage and coordinate huge problem inimize cost, pollution, further, GHG and temperature rise and tipping point cross( eg ice sheet loss) whiledeploying renewables &storage very fast while lowering uncertainties of sun, wind, cost, ROI, BOS, land, water.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Solar, wind, and li-ion batteries are all dropping 7-10%/year and have very low carbon LCA cost, so they are our best solutions for short term. </p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Bio-methane capture and digester biogas usage represent not only huge public health boon, which should help it be funded, and as well provide dispatchable fuel to back up PV and wind, along with waste heat recovery. </p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>How can they best be deployed, ramped at say 20% or the right value per year to maximize goals. I.e deploymment to provide true energy security to all US and NATO bases and facilities. Deployment of PV in southwest US would seem best way to reach payback and generate capital for next generation and expansion?<br />
|
|||
|
|
Where should R&D money be put and how? How much faster could batteries improve, or wind, or PV, or biogas, or waste heat recovery, with what benefit?<br />
|
|||
|
|
How can joint efforts improve financing, like covering irrigation canal water with PV? Or agrivoltaics that actually improve crop yield/hectare?<br />
|
|||
|
|
How do we measure, improve, update, decide the next deployments, moves technology changes?<br />
|
|||
|
|
How do we avoid delays from grid operators, which are currently endemic?</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Electrification of aviation can be done by inflight resupply/recharge/rethrust, and biofuel APU, then future mothership-feeder systems, together can improve domestic air travel from its current hassle, noise, pollution and misery, to quiet clean e-VSTOL with local service.<br />
|
|||
|
|
Electrification of trucks can be done with battery swap and as needed en-route resupply / recharge / re-power units, powered trailers, and biofuel APUs.</p>
