Support Structure Modelling in Actuator Line Method Large Eddy Simulations of Wind Turbine Wakes
ABSTRACT While advancements in the prediction of wind turbine loads and wakes within the actuator line method large eddy simulation (ALM‐LES) framework have been an active research topic in recent years, the modelling of the tower and nacelle has received comparatively less attention.

ABSTRACT Vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) is a suitable renewable power generation tool for use in urban areas, especially at low wind speeds and with low noise level. However, an approach with accurate results, acceptable time consumption, and cost for optimizing this turbine is not reported in the literature.
