Test of wing section
II.2.2) Additional CPV code(s)
38542000
II.2.3) Place of performance
NUTS code:
SE232
Main site or place of performance:
The test of the wing section could be performed anywhere in Europe. Minesto's design engineers who are based in Göteborg need to be present during the test to failure.
II.2.4) Description of the procurement
This lot concerns building a test rig for the parts obtained from Lot B, and the testing itself. Two tests are requested: one fatigue test and one static test to failure.
With an estimated fatigue failure strain of > 0.4 %, FE simulations show that a fatigue failure is expected to happen for a load of between 1.9 and 3 MN and a static failure in the range of 3 - 4.5 MN.
The test displacement necessary is at least 10 mm. For fatigue with a load of 3 MN and R = 0.5, the stroke as calculated here by FE modelling is 2 mm. With some margin for flexibility in the rig etc., a requirement of preferably 3 Hz and at least 1 Hz at 3 MN and with 5 mm stroke (range) is a requirement for specification of the test machine.
