User Facility Agreements
Sophisticated laboratory facilities once available only to research engineers are now open to industry at the National Wind Technology Center (NWTC). At NWTC, industry engineers can access expert assistance with airfoil, blade, turbine, and instrument design; state- of-the-art stands for generators, gearboxes, drivetrains, and blades; a mobile vibration testing laboratory; certification tests run according to international standards; a versatile hybrid test bed; computers running the latest turbine design codes; and the latest computer models for analyzing wind system economics and utility power systems. Cooperative research and development agreement (CRADA) arrangements are described in this document.
