Enhanced aerodynamic and mechanical performance of double-rotor wind turbines via a one-way fluid-structure interaction analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One
Double-rotor wind turbines (DRWTs) have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional single-rotor wind turbines (SRWTs). This study proposes a novel DRWT equipped with a differential planetary gearbox and compares it with a geometrically equivalent SRWT through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and One-way Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI ...

Comparison of Experimental and Numerical Transient Drop Deformation during Transition through Orifices in High-Pressure Homogenizers

open access: yesChemEngineering, 2021
The droplet deformation in dispersing units of high-pressure homogenizers (HPH) is examined experimentally and numerically. Due to the small size of common homogenizer nozzles, the visual analysis of the transient droplet generation is usually not ...

Leading-Edge Vortex Characteristics of Low-Aspect-Ratio Sweptback Plates at Low Reynolds Number

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
A sweptback angle can directly regulate a leading-edge vortex on various aerodynamic devices as well as on the wings of biological flyers, but the effect of a sweptback angle has not yet been sufficiently investigated.

A Comparison of Isolated and Ducted Fixed-Pitch Propellers under Non-Axial Inflow Conditions

open access: yesAerospace, 2020
A strong interest in highly-efficient, small-scale propeller configurations can be recognized, especially due to the currently growing number of and usage possibilities for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Transonic Buffet Active Control with Local Smart Skin

open access: yesActuators, 2022
Transonic flight has high economic benefits, but the appearance of transonic buffet limits the flight envelope. The shock control bump currently used for transonic buffet suppression tends to degrade the aerodynamic performance of the non-buffeting state.
