Wind turbine wakes: exploring the underexplored : vertical-axis wind turbines and topography

Sina Shamsoddin

In this thesis, we aim to contribute to the research on two topics, namely, vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) and wind turbines on topography. In the VAWT part, first, we implement two actuator-type VAWT parameterization models (i.e. the actuator swept- ...
