Work!

Hello friends! I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while but I've been busy working and time seems to pass way too fast! Days go by faster than ever!

Sunday was my day off where I decided to go touristing around Copenhaguen with my friend Jared, another visiting student from JHU. We went to see the little mermaid and walked around the main tourist area in Copenhaguen, where we saw a bit of everything ranging from the local "Starbucks" called "Baresso" all the way to McDonalds and the Disney store, yes America is here as well, haha. I met Jared at church after the service he attended and then we went out. We walked for a while and decided to eat at this place that was a bit expensive but we hadnt seen another place for a while and we were pretty hungry. A $20 Omelette was the result, probably not the best decision, specially after we started walking again and went straight into the touristy area packed with local restaurants... Anyways here is a picture of us and our Omeletts, they were good but common, not even a toast with it? haha

I finally met my supervisor during the summer, Jens Sorensen. He's a nice guy, pretty much one of the most respected researchers around here! I met with him and Robert Mikkelsen on Monday to discuss what I will be working during the summer. We talked for a bit on what I will be doing and the things we will be comparing. As a start they suggested writing a blade element momentum script to calculate the quantities along a turbine blade such as forces, induction factor, lift and drag coefficients, etc. Here is a plot of how these quantities are looking like!

During our trip we ran into this car. We were taking pictures when a local old man says to us: "That's what happens in Denmark when you don't pay your parking tickets". Funny right? haha

"This is what happens in Denmark if you don't pay your tickets".

So other than that I've been working in my computer, talking to my girlfriend, friends and family online. I stayed home today because it's a Danish holiday, constitution day or something. Some people were going to school and others were staying so after the alarm went off this morning I decided I was staying home, hahaha. I did laundry yesterday, but there's no dryer, so this is the "green" way of drying your clothes. It's pretty dry here so this works!
