Advanced design and optimization of wind turbines based on turbine theories [PDF]
A review of wind turbine technology showed that many flaws in both the flow models and computations are involved in the traditional fundamentals. While traditional methods for design and computation are all based on the airfoil theory, a new method based

Graphene‐skinned alumina fiber (GAF) is a new composite with graphene conformally grown on individual alumina fibers via chemical vapor deposition (CVD). GAF's dynamic, continuous and scalable production is achieved by using a home‐made roll‐to‐roll (RTR) CVD system featuring integrated degumming and growth chambers. GAF possesses tunable conductivity,

Abstract Filamentous microorganisms exhibit complex morphologies that influence product formation and are affected by various bioprocess parameters. Consistent morphology is therefore essential for comparable results during scale‐up. This study investigates the scale‐up of Streptomyces species (Streptomyces spp.) cultivations from shake flasks to ...

Effect of Savonius blade height on the performance of a hybrid Darrieus-Savonius wind turbine
A vertical hybrid turbine commonly consists of a Darrieus and Savonius rotor where the Savonius is inside Darrieus turbine. This paper describes the experimental study of hybrid Darrieus-Savonius wind turbines by variation in Savonius blade height.

Structural Design, Analysis, and Testing of a 10 kW Fabric-Covered Wind Turbine Blade
Reducing the weight of a wind turbine blade is a major issue. Wind turbines have become larger in size to increase power generating efficiency. The blade has also grown in length to take more wind energy.
