Abstract: A method for controlling operation of a fluid transport system by applying a self-learning control process. The method includes: receiving obtained values of input signals during operation of the system during a first period of time, which is controlled by a predetermined control process, automatically selecting a subset of the input signals based on the received obtained values of the input signals, receiving obtained values of at least the selected subset of input signals during a second period of time, which is controlled by applying the self-learning control process, which is configured to control operation based only on the selected subset of input signals, and wherein applying the self-learning control process includes updating the self-learning control process based on the received obtained values of the selected subset of the input signals and based on at least an approximation of a performance indicator function.

Abstract: A control system controls a fluid distribution system that includes consumer branches arranged in parallel. Each consumer branch includes a consumer element (31) consuming fluid and/or thermal energy, a regulating device (9) receiving a control value regulating a flow of fluid and/or thermal energy through the consumer branch, and a sensor (11) providing a measured value of the consumer branch. The control system includes a saturation calculation module (21) providing a saturation value, for each operational consumer branch, indicative of the saturation degree of the associated consumer branch, and a saturation compensation module (23) receiving the saturation values and altering a reference value. The altered reference value is based on an initial reference value and the saturation values from all consumer branches. The consumer branch regulating device, of each operational consumer branch, is controllable based on the altered reference value and the measured value of the associated consumer branch.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a rotor blade, including: a) arranging a first layup of fiber material inside a mold, the first layup corresponding to an airfoil of the rotor blade, b) arranging a second layup of fiber material on a core member before and/or after arranging the core member in the mold, the second layup including the core member corresponding to a web of the rotor blade, the core member comprising a recess configured to ensure a smooth transfer of loads into and out of the web, and c) curing a resin impregnating the fiber material of the first and second layup to form the rotor blade.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a rotor blade for a wind turbine is provided. The method includes: a) arranging a first layup of fiber material inside a mold, the first layup corresponding to an airfoil of the rotor blade, b) arranging a second layup of fiber material on a core member before and/or after arranging the core member in the mold, the second layup including the core member corresponding to a web of the rotor blade, the core member comprising a recess configured to ensure a smooth transfer of loads into and out of the web, and c) curing a resin impregnating the fiber material of the first and second layup to form the rotor blade. The method is advantageous in that there is no need anymore to machine the recess into the cured web, thus saving man power and avoiding waste.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a wind turbine rotor blade with a shear web involves the following steps: Fiber material is laid onto the inner surface of a mold. A first layer of fiber material for the shear web is laid onto the fiber material which was placed onto the inner surface of the mold. Then a first mold core part is partly positioned onto the first layer of fiber material. The first mold core part has a base surface, a top surface and a surface for supporting the shear web. The first layer of fiber material is then placed along the surface for supporting the shear web and at least partly along the top surface of the first mold core part. Then the shear web is positioned at the surface of supporting the shear web of the first mold core part.
