Associate Professor
Department of Energy and Process Engineering Faculty of EngineeringBackground and activities
My work is linked to hydropower technologies, and especially towards the heart of the power plants, the turbine. Fokus areas are simulation of turbine operation, including system dynamics in pipes and tunnels, rotor- stator phenomena, fatigue and design.
I'm involved in several projects:
Jeg er visekoordinator av EERA Joint programme on Hydropower, og koordinator for underprogrammet for turbinen
