1. 1. Vehicle wakes in side wind

   Författare :Magnus Urquhart; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; surrogate model; optimization; CFD; wind; crossflow; drag; yaw; cavity; wake; tomographic PIV; aerodynamics;

   Sammanfattning : There is a global push to reduce the energy consumption of passenger vehicles with increasingly stringent targets and regulations. More than one-tenth of Europe's greenhouse gasses are due to passenger vehicles. The aerodynamic drag is a major contributor to energy consumption responsible for more than a quarter of the vehicle's energy usage. LÄS MER

3. 2. Vehicle wakes subject to side wind conditions

   Författare :Magnus Urquhart; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; drag; surrogate model; cavity; Latin Hypercube Sampling; wake; aerodynamics; real world conditions; Proper Orthogonal Decomposition; wind averaged drag; Radial Basis Functions; side wind; optimization; tapered extensions; cycle averaged;

   Sammanfattning : Passenger vehicles are associated with travel flexibility, today it is clear that this flexibility impacts the environment. Passenger vehicles account for more than one-tenth of all greenhouse gasses in Europe with approximately a quarter of the vehicle's energy consumption wasted as aerodynamic drag. LÄS MER

4. 3. Wind turbine wakes : controland vortex shedding

   Författare :Davide Medici; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind Energy; Power Optimisation; Active Control; Yaw; Vortex; Mechanical energy engineering; Mekanisk energiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Wind tunnel studies of the wake behind a model wind turbine have been made in order to get a better understanding of wake development as well as the possibility to predict the power output from downstream turbines working in the wake of an upstream one. Both two-component hot-wire anemometry as well as particle image velocimetry (PIV) have been used to map the flow field. LÄS MER

5. 4. Aeroacoustic Prediction for Vertical Axis Wind Turbines

   Författare :Aya Aihara; Hans Bernhoff; Anders Goude; Mats Åbom; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid; acoustics; noise; sound; wind energy; vertical axis wind turbine; aerodynamics; airfoil; simulations; CFD; LES;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic prediction of vertical axis wind turbines, using computational fluid dynamics simulations. Noise pollution from wind turbines is one of the disadvantages of wind energy, calling for strategies to reduce noise levels. LÄS MER

7. 5. Wind power in thermal power systems

   Författare :Lisa Göransson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; integration; wind power; variation moderator; PHEV; storage;

   Sammanfattning : AbstractWind power is a key technology in the effort to transform the power system in order to reduce its climate impact. However, the ability of wind power to reduce CO2-emissions depends on the properties of the power system. LÄS MER
