A new method boosts wind farms’ energy output, without new equipment

MIT News
Illustration shows the concept of collective wind farm flow control. Existing utility-scale wind turbines are operated to maximize only their own individual power production, generating turbulent wakes (shown in purple) which reduce the power production of downwind turbines. The new collective wind farm control system deflects wind turbine wakes to reduce this effect (shown in orange). This system increased power production in a three-turbine array in India by 32 percent.

A better way to quantify radiation damage in materials

MIT News
Much of the damage inside nuclear reactors is so small that it has eluded previous tests. Now a new tool provides a way to directly measure this damage, potentially opening a path for the safe operation of nuclear power plants far beyond their present licensed lifetimes.
