Optimal design of wind turbine blades equipped with flaps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
As a result of the significant growth of wind turbines in size, blade load control has become the main challenge for large wind turbines. Many advanced techniques have been investigated aiming at developing control devices to ease blade loading.

Development and Experimental Study of a Seamless Morphing Trailing Edge Flap Equipped with an Elephant Trunk Actuation Mechanism

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Following the promising performance of the seamless morphing trailing edge (SMTE) flap and its internal actuation system, the elephant trunk mechanism (ETM), investigated through aerodynamic and structural analyses, this study presents an experimental ...

Computation of Trailing Edge Noise with a Discontinuous Galerkin Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Trailing edge noise of a semi-infinite, thin, flat plate situated in low Mach number flow is computed in two spatial dimensions. The Acoustic Pertur- bation Equations (APE), which are employed as governing equations, are discretized via a ...

A multi-objective and CFD based optimization of roof-flap geometry and position for simultaneous drag and lift reduction

open access: yesPropulsion and Power Research
As the transport sector is responsible for the consumption of a vast proportion of the oil produced, it is mandatory to research feasible solutions to tackle this issue.

A Noise Reduction Study on Flow-Permeable Trailing-Edges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This paper summarizes the results of an experimental study on flow-permeable comb-type trailing-edges which have the potential to effectively reduce turbulent boundary-layer trailing-edge noise.

A modification of Amiet's classical trailing edge noise theory for strictly two dimensional flows

open access: yes, 2007
The aim of this report is to derive theoretical expressions for the far-field pressure generated by disturbances convecting over a trailing edge. First, a general calculation of thefar-field pressure is discussed.
