FURNAS has just launched the country's first wind turbine, devoted to studies and research on wind energy production. Located in Aparecida de Goiania (GO), the project was inaugurated this Tuesday, December 11 in the presence of the director of engineering of the company, Claudio Motta.
The FURNAS wind tunnel is 27 meters long and was built for one year. It results from the research, development and innovation (R & D + I) project of the company and provided for investments of R $ 5 million
In the tunnel, it will be possible to show the incidence of wind in equipment and pylons. wind farms, using reduced models, to evaluate the behavior of the wind pbading through the structures, at their actual or maximum power, and their impact (19659002). Professionals will be able to badyze the movement of the wind and thus improve the quality of equipment, propellers and towers, for optimal use of each unit.

Pioneering
FURNAS is the first energy company to invest in this type of project, which will be decisive.
"The studies will improve the quality of these structures for the supply of wind energy and optimize the behavior of equipment in situations close to reality. possible to simulate what will happen in extreme cases, where the wind is one of the key aspects to know, "Cabral said.
According to him, the equipment can also be used to test other structures that undergo a direct action of the wind. such as towers and buildings
At the opening ceremony of the wind tunnel, the workshop "Wind Energy – Threats and Opportunities" will also take place, where FURNAS representatives will present the functionalities and applicability of the equipment. . Industry experts will then discuss market, technical, technological and scientific perspectives.
Over the next five years, FURNAS will invest 300 million rand in 55 research, development and innovation projects. This amount is three times larger than what the company had planned for such initiatives over the last five years.
The new contributions result from a shift in the profile of investments in R & D initiatives, which will focus on the creation of new products and business, in search of a competitive differential for the company.
Civil Engineering Technology Center
Located in Aparecida de Goiania (GO), the FURNAS civil engineering technology center was built in 1983. It has modern facilities dedicated to the development of research and studies in the fields of civil and hydraulic engineering, as well as the technological control of quality, at the different phases of a work intended for the production of energy, in particular, and infrastructure work in general.
Studies contribute in a relevant way to the badysis. criteria, by revising and establishing new concepts and generating new parameters for use in projects, leading to safe and economical work.
