Detailed Investigations of Load Coefficients on Grates: influence of air and angle of attack

Research output: Book/ReportReportResearch

Abstract

In this report is presented the results of model tests carried out at Dept. of Civil Engineering, aalborg University (AAU) on behalf of DONG Energy A/S and Vattenfall A/S, Denmark. The objective of the tests was to investigate the load coefficient on different grates and a solid plate for designing offshore windmill access platforms against run-up generated forces with special attention to the influence of air entrainment and the angle of attack.
