Fish schooling as a basis for vertical axis wind turbine farm design [PDF]
Most wind farms consist of horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs) due to the high power coefficient (mechanical power output divided by the power of the free-stream air through the turbine cross-sectional area) of an isolated turbine.

Aerodynamic shape optimization of a vertical-axis wind turbine with effect number of blades
Our research consists of the experimental study of the vertical wind turbine of form H. The study represents the effect of the number of blades in the variation of the number of rotations of the vertical wind turbine, the speed ratio, torque, the power ...

Low‐Angle Grain Boundaries and Re‐Segregation in Single‐Crystalline Ni‐Base Superalloys
This work demonstrates that Re‐segregation at low‐angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) in Ni‐base superalloys is influenced by misorientation angle. Advanced microscopy and atom probe tomography reveal that higher misorientation angles increases Re‐segregation.

A wind tower can augment the performance of a vertical-axis wind turbine since it can increase the wind velocity as well as adjust the wind direction. However, it is very important to correctly determine the configuration of the wind tower because the ...

Vertical axis hybrid wind turbine design [PDF]
Wind energy is one of the alternative energy sources that respond positively to both global warming and energy needs, due to the increasing population density and the adverse effects it has brought in recent years. In this study, modification on current design of wind turbines has been demonstrated in order to increase the energy yield obtained from ...

On the wake of a Darrieus turbine [PDF]
The theory and experimental measurements on the aerodynamic decay of a wake from high performance vertical axis wind turbine are discussed. In the initial experimental study, the wake downstream of a model Darrieus rotor, 28 cm diameter and a height of ...

Phase‐field simulations coupled with dislocation‐density‐based crystal plasticity modeling reproduce γ′ rafting behavior in single‐crystal Ni‐based superalloys under varied loading conditions. The model captures both macroscopic creep and microscopic morphology evolution, with results matching high‐temperature creep experiments.
