Karin Eustorgi is the Group Manager for Test Planning and Evaluation and is responsible for the (mechanical) validation of wind turbine drive trains and their components on the various system test rigs at DyNaLab. Since studying mechanical engineering at the TU Berlin, she has been working on vibration analyses of rotating components. Her tasks at IWES also include measurement technology, data acquisition and data handling.
As the dimensions of wind turbines continue to increase in size, so do the mechanical loads acting on their components. The incoming wind field also covers an increasingly larger area. As such, models play an important role in the development…
