Data from: Optimal blade pitch control for enhanced vertical-axis wind turbine performance

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Sébastien Le Fouest

This directory contains open-source data obtained using a single-bladed H-type vertical-axis wind turbine prototype with individual blade pitching. This data results from the optimisation of the blade's pitching kinematics using a genetic algorithm at two ...

Aerodynamic study of a Hyperloop pod equipped with compressor to overcome the Kantrowitz limit

Yohei Sato

This paper describes an investigation of the aerodynamic performance of a Hyperloop pod equipped with an axial compressor using CFD simulation. The compressor is expected to reduce the drag if the operational speed of the pod exceeds the Kantrowitz Limit ( ...

Forces on buildings with openings and orientation in a steady post-tsunami free-surface flow

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich

Steady free-surface flows around buildings occurring during flood or tsunami events can produce major damages and a quantification of the post-peak forces is essential for safety and resilience of coastal structures. The loading process is highly affected ...

Influence of Large Relative Tip Clearances for a Micro Radial Fan and Design Guidelines for Increased Efficiency

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner

The blade tip clearance loss was studied experimentally and numerically for a micro radial fan with a tip diameter of 19:2mm. Its relative blade tip clearance, i.e., the clearance dividedby the blade height of 1:82mm, was adjusted with different shims. The ...

Unsteady flow separation in rotationally augmented flow fields plays a significant role in the aerodynamic performance of industrial rotors, including wind turbines. Current computational models underestimate the aerodynamic loads due to the inaccurate pre ...

2019

Dredge pumps are usually operated at part-load conditions, in which the low-solidity centrifugal impeller could experience large internal energy dissipation, related to flow separation and vortices. In this study, SST k- and SAS-SST turbulence models were ...

Spatially Sampled Pressure Profile Measurements in Externally Pressurized Gas Journal Bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Eliott Philippe Guenat, Karim Magdi Zakaria Abdelrahman Shalash

Externally pressurized gas journal bearings (EPGJB) are widely adopted to support high speed rotors. This paper presents novel experimental benchmark test data which enables EPGJB model validation. Axial and circumferential pressure profile measurements ar ...

The Role of Impeller Outflow Conditions on the Performance of Vaned Diffusers

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann

Highly loaded impellers, typically used in turbocharger and gas turbine applications, exhaust an unsteady, transonic flow that is nonuniform across the span and pitch and swirling at angles approaching tangential. With the exception of the flow angle, conf ...
