CFD in Wind Energy: The Virtual, Multiscale Wind Tunnel
Over the past two decades, computational fluid dynamics and particularly the finite volume method have been increasingly used to predict the performance of wind turbines within their environment. Increases in available computational power has led to the application of RANS-based models to more and more complex flow problems and permitted the use of LES-based models where previously not possible...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Virtual Wind Tunnel
Researchers working in computational modelling can benefit a lot from coupling their code with a well established professional code, particularly when it is of a complementary discipline. However, this coupling is very difficult typically due to lack of a suitable interface or lack of detailed documentation of the commercial software. In this paper the computational fluid-structure interaction ...
متن کاملCFD for Better Understanding of Wind Tunnel Tests
CFD requires validation for complicated flow problems involving complex physics such as turbulence. Wind tunnels are still the most commonly used validation tools for CFD including physical modelling although some limited use of reliable DNS data base for simple geometries is recently becoming possible. One can observe the trend that a higher and higher demand on the accuracy of the wind tunnel...
متن کاملEvaluate the wind energy potential in Yazd
With population growth and progress of human society and human life needs to energy sources and also environmental pollution caused by fossil fuels, many countries are looking to use clean energy sources. Wind energy is one of them. In this paper was to evaluate the potential of wind energy in Yazd city. After review and analysis of meteorological data from 2011 to 2014 by software, the annual ...
متن کاملA method to correct the flow distortion of offshore wind data using CFD simulation and experimental wind tunnel tests
The assessment of wind energy resource for the development of deep offshore wind plants requires the use of every possible source of data and, in many cases, includes data gathered at meteorological stations installed at islands, islets or even oil platforms—all structures that interfere with, and change, the flow characteristics. This work aims to contribute to the evaluation of such changes i...
