NOAA buys WINDCUBE Scanning Lidars from Renewable NRG systems Produkte Techniken-Windkraft Windenergie Wirtschaft 30. April 2015 Werbung Renewable NRG Systems, a designer and manufacturer of decision support tools for the global renewable energy industry, announced today the recent sale of two WINDCUBE 200S 3D Scanning Doppler Lidars to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). (WK-intern) - WINDCUBE 200S Lidars incorporate advanced techniques to measure the wind components on a large scale for short term campaigns or long term operations to reduce wind flow modeling uncertainties, understand physical phenomena such as wakes, and improve wind forecasting. They are able to perform a full 3D mapping of the atmosphere to provide remote measurements of wind speed, direction, turbulence, and boundary layer
Measurements in Harsh Environments – Is Made Easy With FBGS Optical Fiber Forschungs-Mitteilungen Techniken-Windkraft 24. August 2013 Werbung (WK-intern) - Measurement of strain or temperature in harsh environments often requires specialist equipment, preparations or processes, with the most common environmental challenges coming from: Very low or high temperature Radioactive environments Environments subject to high EMI Applications subject to high fatigue Measurements over complex forms or large areas Multiple sensing points Traditional electric technologies can sometimes only be used once sophisticated and expensive barriers, shielding methods or other protection is in place. As such it is rewarding to know that there is a new technology that can be used to address all the above challenging applications. FBGS uses draw tower technology to manufacture their fiber optic grating
