1. Fluid Mechanics of Vertical Axis Turbines : Simulations and Model Development
Sammanfattning : Two computationally fast fluid mechanical models for vertical axis turbines are the streamtube and the vortex model. The streamtube model is the fastest, allowing three-dimensional modeling of the turbine, but lacks a proper time-dependent description of the flow through the turbine. LÄS MER
2. Aerodynamics of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines : Development of Simulation Tools and Experiments
Sammanfattning : This thesis combines measurements with the development of simulation tools for vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT). Numerical models of aerodynamic blade forces are developed and validated against experiments. The studies were made on VAWTs which were operated at open sites. LÄS MER
3. Fluid mechanical simulations and development for vertical axis turbines
Sammanfattning : The aerodynamics of vertical axis turbines is typically studied using streamtube, vortex or CFD models. This thesis focuses on the first two models, which are the computationally faster ones. LÄS MER
4. Analytical Aerodynamic Simulation Tools for Vertical Axis Wind Turbines
Sammanfattning : Wind power is a renewable energy source that is today the fastest growing solution to reduce CO2 emissions in the electric energy mix. Upwind horizontal axis wind turbine with three blades has been the preferred technical choice for more than two decades. This horizontal axis concept is today widely leading the market. LÄS MER
5. On Multistage Analysis of Transonic Compressors: From Axisymmetric Throughflow Time-Marching to Unsteady Three-Dimensional Methods
Sammanfattning : A throughflow time-marching finite-volume solver, capable of computing viscous transonic multistage compressor flows with embedded shocks, is presented. The behavior of the blade model, based on the blade mean surface flow tangency condition, was investigated for transonic flows. LÄS MER
