Analysis of the Patent of a Protective Cover for Vertical-Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs): Simulations of Wind Flow [PDF]
Sustainability, 2020 This paper presents a numerical and experimental analysis of the patent of a device to be used in vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) under extreme wind conditions. The device consists of two hemispheres interconnected by a set of conveniently implemented variable section ducts through which the wind circulates to the blades. Furthermore, the design of

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.A Richardson‐extrapolation–based mesh zoning framework is developed to optimize CFD simulation accuracy and computational efficiency in dam bottom outlet flows. Using six mesh scenarios and multi‐parameter convergence analysis (pressure, velocity, TKE), the method identifies an optimal fine‐resolution zone around the gate and progressively coarser ...
