Hub-mounted actuators for blade pitch collective control [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Blade collective pitch control is provided for a rotor system by rotary actuators located between adjacent blades. Each actuator is connected to the leading edge of one adjacent blade and the trailing edge of the other adjacent ...

FORTRAN program for calculating leading and trailing-edge geometry of turbomachine blades [PDF]

open access: yes
A FORTRAN IV program which calculates leading- and trailing-edge circle radii, tangency angles on the leading- and trailing-edge circles, and stagger angles of turbomachinery blade sections using only spline points defining the blade surfaces is ...

Trailing-Edge Flap Control for Mitigating Rotor Power Fluctuations of a Large-Scale Offshore Floating Wind Turbine under the Turbulent Wind Condition

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
A trailing-edge flap control strategy for mitigating rotor power fluctuations of a 5 MW offshore floating wind turbine is developed under turbulent wind inflow. The wind shear must be considered because of the large rotor diameter. The trailing-edge flap

Estimation of deviation angle for axial-flow compressor blade sections using inviscid-flow solutions [PDF]

open access: yes
Development of a method of estimating deviation angles by analytical procedures was begun. Solutions for inviscid, irrotational flow in the blade-to-blade plane were obtained with a finite-difference calculation method.

Film cooling of turbine blade trailing edges

open access: yes, 2016
In modern gas turbine engines, film cooling is extensively used to cool the components exposed to the hot mainstream gas path. In implementing film cooling on modern gas turbine engines, the trailing edge film poses a particularly challenging design problem.

Film cooling adiabatic effectiveness measurements of pressure side trailing edge cooling configurations

open access: yesPropulsion and Power Research, 2015
Nowadays total inlet temperature of gas turbine is far above the permissible metal temperature; as a consequence, advanced cooling techniques must be applied to protect from thermal stresses, oxidation and corrosion the components located in the high ...

Cold air study of the effect on turbine stator blade aerodynamic performance of coolant ejection from various trailing edge slot geometries. 2: Comparison of experimental and analytical results [PDF]

open access: yes
Experimentally determined efficiencies of turbine stator blades having trailing-edge coolant ejection are compared with efficiencies predicted from two previously published approximate analytical methods.

Numerical Study of the Active Flow Control Effect on the Wind Turbine Blade Section Using a Trailing Edge Flap

open access: yesWind Energy
Wind turbines operating in unsteady and complex environments often encounter asymmetric and unsteady vortex flows on the suction side of the blade, leading to airflow separation and dynamic stall.

Wind turbine noise modeling: prediction of amplitude modulation and influence of atmospheric conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
International audienceAeroacoustic noise from a wind turbine is mainly caused by the interaction between the wind turbine blade and the air flow. For a modern wind turbine, trailing edge noise is often the dominant noise source. In this paper, a detailed
