Robert Flemming Mikkelsen

Robert Flemming Mikkelsen is a Senior Researcher at the Department of Wind and Energy Systems, Technical University of Denmark (DTU). His expertise spans wind turbine aerodynamics, computational fluid dynamics, and renewable energy systems, with a focus on airfoil performance, rotor wake dynamics, and floating offshore wind turbine stability.

• Institution: Technical University of Denmark
• Department: Wind and Energy Systems
• Academic Role: Senior Researcher

His research investigates:

• Aerodynamic behavior of wind turbine blades under varying Reynolds numbers
• Dynamic stall phenomena in pitching airfoils
• Hydrodynamic response of floating offshore wind turbine structures
• Actuator line simulations for rotor wake analysis

Recent work includes experimental studies on NACA airfoils, computational modeling of rotor wakes, and structural analysis of the TetraSpar floater system.

Key contributions appear in journals like Energy, Marine Structures, and Journal of Physics: Conference Series, emphasizing wind energy sustainability and SDG alignment.

He actively supervises projects such as "Elite sport aerodynamics" and "PLCT-data: NACA63018 aeroacoustic - microphone array," and collaborates on wind tunnel infrastructure like the Poul la Cour Tunnel.
