Local Entropy Generation in Compressible Flow through a High Pressure Turbine with Delayed Detached Eddy Simulation

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Gas turbines are important energy-converting equipment in many industries. The flow inside gas turbines is very complicated and the knowledge about the flow loss mechanism is critical to the advanced design.

Assessment of a Mid-Fidelity Numerical Approach for the Investigation of Tiltrotor Aerodynamics

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The study of the complex aerodynamics that characterise tiltrotors represents a challenge for computational fluid dynamics tools. URANS numerical solvers are typically used to explore the aerodynamic features that characterise the different flight ...

Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

Comparison of Two Fourier-Based Methods for Simulating Inlet Distortion Unsteady Flows in Transonic Compressors

open access: yesAerospace
The aerodynamic performance of transonic compressors, particularly the stall margin, is significantly influenced by inlet distortion. While time-marching methods accurately simulate such unsteady flows, they can be time-consuming.

Ocean Wave Modulation of Offshore Wind Turbine Loads and Wake

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines how wave‐induced modulation affects the operational performance and structural dynamics of fixed‐bottom offshore wind turbines operating under a neutral atmospheric boundary layer profile. To capture these effects accurately while maintaining computational efficiency, unsteady RANS modelling techniques are employed.

Diurnal cycle RANS simulations applied to wind resource assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Microscale computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models can be used for wind resource assessment on complex terrains. These models generally assume neutral atmospheric stratification, an assumption that can lead to inaccurate modeling results and to large ...

Body Force Modeling of the Aerodynamics of a Low-Speed Fan under Distorted Inflow

open access: yesInternational Journal of Turbomachinery, Propulsion and Power, 2019
New propulsive concepts, such as boundary layer ingestion, involve stronger interactions between the engine and its environment, and are thus more complex flows compared to classical architectures.

Impacts of Blade Camber on Cross‐Flow Turbine Performance and Loading

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cross‐flow turbines show promise for renewable energy generation from wind and tidal sources. The rotating reference frame of cross‐flow turbine blades results in virtual camber and incidence due to streamline curvature, altering the lift, drag, and pitching moment of the blades. Adding geometric camber is therefore likely to alter performance
