Validation of short-pulse reflectometry turbulence measurements with a synthetic diagnostic

Stefano Coda, Stephan Brunner, Oleg Krutkin, Umesh Kumar, Mackenzie Peter-Fulford Van Rossem, Samuele Mazzi

Experimental measurements of the turbulence amplitude utilizing a short pulse reflectometry method are presented. Two discharges with shaped plasma possessing opposite signs of triangularity are considered and a higher turbulence amplitude is found in the ...

Enhancing Wind Farm Performance through Axial Induction and Tilt Control: Insights from Wind Tunnel Experiments

Fernando Porté Agel, Guillem Armengol Barcos

Static axial induction control and tilt control are two strategies that have the potential to increase power production in wind farms, mitigating wake effects and increasing the available power for downstream turbines. In this study, wind tunnel experiment ...

Numerical study on the scale effect of tip vortex cavitation induced by incoming velocities and scale ratios

Mohamed Farhat, Huaiyu Cheng, Mohan Xu

Large eddy simulations of tip vortex cavitation (TVC) around an elliptical hydrofoil is performed to study its scale effect. A satisfying agreement is obtained between the numerical and experimental data. It indicates that the scale effect of TVC is remark ...

A wind tunnel study on cyclic yaw control in a wind farm model

Fernando Porté Agel, Guiyue Duan

Dynamic control strategies, such as dynamic induction control [1], were reported as efficient and beneficial in improving wind farm power production. A recent work based on computational fluid dynamics simulation [2] shows that by controlling wake meanderi ...

Including the turbulent Schmidt number in the dynamic wake meandering model

Fernando Porté Agel, Peter Andreas Brugger, Corey Dean Markfort

Wind turbine wakes are an important source of power losses and mechanical wear within wind farms. Wake meandering is a low-frequency oscillation of the entire wind turbine wake with respect to the time-averaged centerline. It affects power losses by contri ...

Validation of GBS plasma turbulence simulation of the TJ-K stellarator

Paolo Ricci, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella

We present a validation of a three-dimensional, two-fluid simulation of plasma turbulence in the TJ-K stellarator, a low temperature plasma experiment ideally suited for turbulence measurements. The simulation is carried out by the GBS code, recently adapt ...

Spatial Variability of Turbulent Mixing From an Underwater Glider in a Large, Deep, Stratified Lake

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Sébastien Lavanchy, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner, Bieito Fernandez Castro, Alexander Lebaron Forrest

Recent efforts using microstructure turbulence measurements have contributed to our understanding of the overall energy budget in lakes and linkages to vertical fluxes. A paucity of lake-wide turbulence measurements hinders our ability to assess how repres ...

Impact of the turbulence wavenumber spectrum and probing beam geometry on Doppler reflectometry perpendicular velocity measurements

Anita Frank

The perpendicular propagation velocity of turbulent density fluctuations is an important parameter in fusion plasmas, since sheared plasma flows are crucial for reducing turbulence, and thus an essential input parameter for turbulent transport simulations. ...

Growth, timing, & trajectory of vortices behind a rotating plate

Diego Francescangeli

The presence of aerodynamic vortices is widespread in nature. They can be found at small scales near the wing tip of flying insects or at bigger scale in the form of hurricanes, cyclones or even galaxies. They are identified as coherent regions of high vor ...

Wind turbine wakes on escarpments: A wind-tunnel study

Fernando Porté Agel, Arslan Salim Dar

In this study, the wake behind a wind turbine located on an escarpment is investigated using particle-image velocimetry in a wind tunnel. Five different escarpment models are used, which vary in the windward side shape from forward facing steps (FFS) with ...
