Wake and Turbulence Analysis for Wind Turbine Layouts in an Island

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2018
There is a big wind energy potential in supplying the power in an island and most of the islands are off-grid. Due to the limited area in island(s), there is need to find appropriate layout / location for wind turbines suited to the local wind conditions.

Research on complex wake interference of aligned rotors considering the precone variation of the upstream wind turbine

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
To understand the interaction wake effects of aligned horizontal-axis wind turbines, a refined and low-cost wake simulation framework is developed by combining the actuator line (AL) with a local dynamic Smagorinsky (LDS) model.

Application of particle image velocimetry to wind turbine wakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Wind turbine performance is critically dependent on the geometry of the rotor wake. Acquisition of detailed wake data is of major importance for further development of wind turbine studies.

Turbulence‐Intensity Effects on the Aerodynamic Performance of an H‐Type Darrieus Wind Turbine: A URANS Parametric Study

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Turbulence intensity from 1% to 25% was parametrically tested on a three‐bladed H‐type Darrieus rotor across five tip speed ratios (TSRs) using two‐dimensional URANS. The optimal TSR proved the most efficient and most robust operating point simultaneously, with Cp losses capped at 5.8% even at TI = 25%. ABSTRACT The effect of inlet turbulence intensity

A New Study on the Effect of the Partial Wake Generated in a Wind Farm

open access: yesEnergies
In this article, we present an investigative study on the often-overlooked partial wake phenomenon in previous studies concerning wind farm configurations. A partial wake occurs when a portion of the actuator disk of a downstream wind turbine is affected

Comparison of Different Driving Modes for the Wind Turbine Wake in Wind Tunnels

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
The wake of upstream wind turbine is known to affect the operation of downstream turbines and the overall efficiency of the wind farm. Wind tunnel experiments provide relevant information for understanding and modeling the wake and its dependency on the ...

Large eddy simulations of wind turbine wakes in typical complex topographies

open access: yesWind Energy, 2021
There is a need to clarify the coupling characteristics of terrain‐induced wind fields and wind turbine‐induced wake in wind farm micrositing. However, research investigating the effect of hill shape on this interaction is lacking.

Convergence and Residual Error Analysis of Unsteady MHD Stagnation Flow Over a Cylindrical Surface With Streamline and Isotherm Visualization

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The novelty of the current study is that the unsteady MHD Cross nanofluid model is, for the first time, coupled with the melting heat transfer at the stagnation point over a horizontally extended cylinder in a Darcy–Forchheimer porous medium. This work connects complex rheological behaviors and phase‐change phenomena in a unique way, with the only ...
