The wake effect seen through the wind farm simulator
Medical trojan horses, bespoke helmets, and wind farm efficiency are some of the projects to receive funding from the Imperial-TUM Collaboration Fund. The fund, backed equally by Imperial and Technical University of Munich as part of their ' flagship partnership ', will seed early-stage research activity in healthcare haptics, battery storage, and ideas for a circular economy. The start-up funds will help researchers explore new ideas and directions of research to further their respective fields: Re-working wind. By combining our expertise through the seed fund, we can better simulate wind farms to eventually increase the output of clean energy. Dr Sylvain Laizet Department of Aeronautics Wind farms, which comprise clusters of wind turbines, are a valuable source of renewable energy. Placed in open, windy areas, the wind turns the turbines' blades so its energy is converted into mechanical power. Generators then convert the mechanical power into electricity.
