Large-eddy simulation on the similarity between wakes of wind turbines with different yaw angles

نویسندگان

چکیده

This work is dedicated to studying the influence of yaw angle on wake characteristics a 2.5 MW utility-scale wind turbine using large-eddy simulations with turbine's blades and nacelle parameterized as actuator surfaces. Four different angles are simulated, i.e., $\gamma=0^{\circ},10^{\circ},20^{\circ},30^{\circ}$ for three tip-speed ratios $\lambda = 7,8,9$. Similarities observed both time-averaged velocity fields turbulence statistics wakes. Specifically, it found that temporal average deflection, deficit transverse velocity, Reynolds stresses, width defined can be properly scaled characteristic length scales depending thrust rotor angles. The region influenced by PDF instantaneous position, standard deviation position width, other hand, well diameter independent ratios. These results suggest yawed decomposed into streamwise components, turbine-added meandering motion decoupled from deflection considered cases.

Interference of Wind Turbines with Different Yaw Angles of the Upstream Wind Turbine

This experimental study was conducted in a wind tunnel using two turbines in tandem arrangement and downstream turbine is located at X/D=2. The purpose was to investigate how yawing the upstream turbine will affect the performance of the downstream turbine as well as the upstream turbine. Wind loading (thrust force), rotational frequency and power output are the parameters used to define the pe...

Large Eddy Simulation of Wind Events Propagating through an Array of Wind Turbines

Large-eddy simulation has been used to model the atmospheric boundary layer flowing through a span-wise periodic array of wind turbines. The wind turbines are modelled using a coupled simulation in which the FAST wind turbine simulation code from NREL operates within a CFD environment. The wind turbines are implemented in the flow-field using the actuator sector technique, and operate dynamical...

Large eddy simulation applications in gas turbines

The gas turbine presents significant challenges to any computational fluid dynamics techniques. The combination of a wide range of flow phenomena with complex geometry is difficult to model in the context of Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) solvers. We review the potential for large eddy simulation (LES) in modelling the flow in the different components of the gas turbine during a practic...
