Time scales of dynamic stall development on a vertical-axis wind turbine blade

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Sébastien Le Fouest, Daniel Marie Fernex

Vertical-axis wind turbines are excellent candidates to diversify wind energy technology, but their aerodynamic complexity limits industrial deployment. To improve the efficiency and lifespan of vertical-axis wind turbines, we desire data-driven models and ...

The dynamic stall dilemma for vertical-axis wind turbines

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Sébastien Le Fouest

Vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWT) are excellent candidates to complement traditional wind turbines and increase the total wind energy capacity. Development of VAWT has been hampered by their low efficiency and structural unreliability, which are related t ...

A novel control strategy with an anode variable geometry ejector for a SOFC-GT hybrid system

Jinzhi Lu, Jinwei Chen

A novel control strategy was developed with an anode variable geometry ejector for a solid oxide fuel cell-gas turbine (SOFC-GT) system. The anode inlet temperature was controlled by combining two modes to achieve a greater controllable range: anode variab ...

Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of a 34 Watt Radial-Inflow Steam Turbine with Partial-Admission

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner

A micro steam turbine with a tip diameter of 15 mm was designed and experimentally characterized. At the nominal mass flow rate and total-to-total pressure ratio of 2.3 kg/h and 2, respectively, the turbine yields a power of 34 W and a total-to-static isen ...
