umerical simulation of atmospheric boundary layer and wakes of horizontal-axis wind turbines

open access: yesJournal of Energy in Southern Africa, 2017
Simulations of wind turbine wakes are presented in this paper using the three-dimensional Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations employing the k-e turbulence model appropriately modified for the atmospheric flows.

Aerodynamic Design of Wind Turbine Blades Utilising Nonconventional Control Systems [PDF]

open access: yes
As a result of the significant growth of wind turbines in size, blade load control has become the main challenge for large wind turbines. Many advanced techniques have been investigated aiming at developing control devices to ease blade loading ...

Sensitivity of space and time on scanning LiDAR data correlation and the implications on synchronisation of bi-static systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
When possible, running a cross comparison between two or more instruments that are out on the field is an important check for accuracy, consistency and reliability of the instruments in question.

Characterization of wind turbine wakes in a non-sheared turbulent flow [Elektronisk resurs] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The characteristics of the turbulence field in wakes produced by horizontal-axis wind turbines under a uniform inflow are studied. To this aim, LES simulations of a rotor subjected to different types of inflow are performed with OpenFOAM.
