    Författare :Thales Coelho Leite Fava; Ardeshir Hanifi; Dan Henningson; Stefania Cherubini; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Boundary layer stability; free-stream turbulence; laminar-turbulent transition; low-frequency oscillations; rotation effects; wind turbine blades.; Gränsskiktsstabilitet; friströmsturbulens; laminär-turbulent omslag; lågfrekventa svängningar; rotationseffekter; vindkraftverksblad.; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Transition on wind turbine blades is a highly complex phenomenon due to the myriad effects influencing the process. This thesis studies some of them, namely free-stream turbulence (FST), rotation, and three-dimensionality. The investigations employ large eddy simulations (LES) with and without (implicit or wall-resolved LES) a subgrid-scale model. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Numerical studies of receptivity, stability and transition of wing and turbine blade boundary layers

    Författare :Luca De Vincentiis; Ardeshir Hanifi; Dan S. Henningson; Stefania Cherubini; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : In the present thesis, receptivity, stability and laminar-turbulent transition of different boundary-layer flows are addressed and investigated by means of direct numerical simulations. In particular, flows over a wing and a low-pressure-turbine (LPT) blade have been the main focus. LÄS MER
