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 ...

Power Production and Blade Fatigue of a Wind Turbine Array Subjected to Active Yaw Control

Fernando Porté Agel, Mou Lin

This study investigated the power production and blade fatigue of a three-turbine array subjected to active yaw control (AYC) in full-wake and partial-wake configurations. A framework of a two-way coupled large eddy simulation (LES) and an aeroelastic blad ...

Strength and timing of primary and secondary vortices generated by a rotating plate

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Diego Francescangeli

Accurate predictions of how vortices grow, evolve, and separate from aerodynamic objects are desirable for various applications ranging from autonomous aerial vehicles to wind turbines. Here, we present an experimental characterisation of the formation pro ...

Vortex shedding from a composite hydrofoil: Experimental evidence of a novel "partial lock-in"

Mohamed Farhat, Thomas Antoine Nicolas Berger, Qin Wu, Yunqing Liu

Lock-in is of great importance in many engineering applications due to its practical implications for structural safety. The influence of composite bend-twist coupling on the wake dynamics and vortex-induced vibration around a carbon fiber composite hydrof ...

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 ...

Large-Eddy Simulation of Wind Turbine Flows: A New Evaluation of Actuator Disk Models

Fernando Porté Agel, Tristan Revaz

Large-eddy simulation (LES) with actuator models has become the state-of-the-art numerical tool to study the complex interaction between the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) and wind turbines. In this paper, a new evaluation of actuator disk models (ADMs) ...
