Large-eddy simulation of a wind-turbine array subjected to active yaw control

Fernando Porté Agel, Mou Lin

This study validates large-eddy simulation (LES) for predicting the flow through a wind turbine array subjected to active yaw control. The wind turbine array consists of three miniature wind turbines operated in both non-yawed and yawed configurations unde ...

An experimental investigation of a roof-mounted horizontal-axis wind turbine in an idealized urban environment

Fernando Porté Agel, Arslan Salim Dar, Guillem Armengol Barcos

Wind-tunnel experiments are performed to investigate the effect of minor modifications to the roof edge shape on the power performance and wake characteristics of a horizontal-axis wind turbine sited on a cube-shaped building. Three roof edge shapes are co ...

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 ...

Wind Transport of Snow Impacts Ka- and Ku-band Radar Signatures on Arctic Sea Ice

Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, David Nicholas Wagner

Wind transport alters the snow topography and microstructure on sea ice through snow redistribution controlled by deposition and erosion. The impact of these processes on radar signatures is poorly understood. Here, we examine the effects of snow redistrib ...

The dynamic stall dilemma for vertical-axis wind turbines

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Sébastien Le Fouest

Vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWT) are excellent candidates to complement traditional wind turbines and increase the total wind energy capacity. Development of VAWT has been hampered by their low efficiency and structural unreliability, which are related t ...
