Performance factors for HAWP systems in pumping operation

Modeling and simulation of kite power systems

Effect of design parameters on the flight dynamics of a Kiteplane

Performance and stability of inflatable tube kites: For the application of a pumping airborne wind energy generator

The performance of a kite power system depends for a large part on the performance of the kite. In a pumping system the glide ratio, the maximum allowable wing loading and the ability to power and depower can significantly affect the average input power to the generator. This poster gives an overview of research activities and results in the...
