Wind Tunnel Test of the Icing Characteristics of Airfoil Rotating around a Vertical Axis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rotating Machinery, 2020
To determine the process of icing on the rotating machinery, an icing experiment on a rotating airfoil blade was carried out in this paper. First, an icing wind tunnel was fabricated, and its conditional parameters were calibrated.

Modelling the Wind Turbine by Using the Tip-Speed Ratio for Estimation and Control

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The development of dynamic models for control purposes is characterised by the challenge of finding a compromise between the minimum necessary information about the system dynamics contained in the model and a model with a low level of complexity such ...

Multimodal Mechanical Testing of Additively Manufactured Ti6Al4V Lattice Structures: Compression, Bending, and Fatigue

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this experimental study, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured Ti‐6Al‐4V lattice structures of different geometries are characterized using compression, four point bending and fatigue testing. While TPMS designs show superior fatigue resistance, SplitP and Honeycomb lattice structures combine high stiffness and strength. The resulting

Aerodynamic Optimization Design of a Supersonic Compressor Rotor with High Pressure Ratio

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2021
Supersonic compressors have a high wheel speed and operational capability, which facilitate a high stage pressure ratio. However, the strong shock waves in the passage of a supersonic rotor and the interference between shock waves and boundary layers can

Wake control through tip-speed ratio adaptation

open access: yes
Abstract. Offshore wind farms can generate wake losses between 10 and 20 % even after layout optimization. By altering the turbine operational parameters, it is possible to reduce internal wake effects. A wake-control approach by modifying the operational tip-speed ratio is presented here using LES high-fidelity modelling with DTU 10 MW reference wind ...

Investigation of Laser Ablation and Brush Pre‐Treatments for AlCu Cold Roll Bonding in Oxygen‐Free Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...
