ARROW presents at UMass Amherst Engineering and Computing Career Day

ARROW presented at the UMass Amherst Engineering and Computing Career Day, an event that brings Massachusetts high school students to campus so they can learn more about degrees and careers in engineering and computing. ARROW students Jonah Hanak and Peter Schimpf presented Investigating the Aerodynamics of Wind Farms, where high school students were able to “investigate the effects of wind speed and wind direction on single turbine power output as well as consider the “wake effect” of upstream turbines on the power output of downstream turbines.” This gave visiting students the chance to participate in a hands-on engineering activity and learn more about how engineers tackle wind energy challenges.
