Continuous Adjoint to Proudman's Formula for Aeroacoustic Shape Optimization

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 97, Issue 6, Page 966-984, June 2025.
This paper presents a cost‐efficient framework for aeroacoustic shape optimization by developing the adjoint to Proudman's formula, coupled with the steady‐state RANS equations and the k‐ ω$$ \omega $$ SST turbulence model. The aeroacoustic model and the adjoint solver are initially validated/verified with experimental data/finite differences, before ...

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

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT 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. These issues significantly impact the aerodynamic performance and energy efficiency of wind turbines. Trailing edge flaps are an active flow control
