Descripción
Multi Rotor Wind Turbine Systems guides the reader through the fundamentals, design, wind farm effects, logistics and operation, costs, and socio-economic considerations. Multi rotor systems (MRS) provide a solution to delivering bigger systems without the need for bigger rotors, offering a highly automatable approach with potential for customization, and other benefits relating to physical scaling laws, positive aerodynamic effects, wake recovery, cost, reliability, and sustainability. All of these aspects are described in this book, which draws on the latest research findings and application examples, enabling the reader to find optimal MRS topologies and design concepts by application of the physics and considering cost of energy (LCoE) as the main objective, with sustainability as a further very relevant aspect.
This latest volume in the Elsevier Wind Energy Engineering Series is a valuable reference for wind energy students and researchers, engineers, turbine designers, wind farm developers, wind farm operators, investors, certification bodies, and consulting firms in wind turbine engineering, as well as anyone interested in innovative technical design and solutions in the energy transition.

Peter Dalhoff
Prof. Peter Dalhoff has held the position of Professor for Wind Energy Systems and Mechanical Engineering since 2010, at the University of Applied Sciences Hamburg (HAW Hamburg), in Germany. His research focuses on concept design, load and strength analysis, energy yield, applied wind farm design, and research wind farm operation. Within the field of concept design, he has worked on multi rotor wind turbine systems (MRS) since 2013, and is actively engaged in multi rotor research projects, funded by the German of Research, Technology and Space and by industry partners SGRE and EnBW. Since 2023, Prof. Dalhoff and Peter Jamieson from Strathclyde University together hold an annual international MRS-seminar in Hamburg and Glasgow. Prof. Dalhoff worked in the wind industry from 1996 to 2010 at Germanischer Lloyd (GL, now merged with DNV) and held positions from expert in charge to managing director.
