Design

Idea Wind is an ever present force in the Netherlands. Our project is completely defined by wind, it is a solid block that consists of various voids that are shaped to enable maximum wind velocity. Due to the different positioning of the tunnels, there will always be a high velocity somewhere. This will be used for various purposes: to fly in vertical tunnels, to surf in horizontal ones, to generate energy and to do research.


Program The voids mainly serve an entertainment purpose (flying and surfing), the solid parts of the building consist of an energy expo, energy research centre, student hub and hospitality area. So in total there are four different functions. Due to all of the voids the building has a very high porosity, a total of 17970 m³ of the 50000 m³, which makes the porosity 36%.

Wind Various calculations have proved that the minimum velocity for people to fly in the voids would be 55 m/s. The current configuration of voids combined with a venturi in the middle will enable flying at an intake speed of 10m/s. Looking at the wind data of Rotterdam, flying will be possible roughly 15 days per month. The velocity is stabilized by placing adaptable components in the venturi. The wind will also be used to generate energy. The maximum energy production in the most optimal vertical void is 278 kWh per second. Horizontal voids give a maximum of 40 kWh per second.
