Hydrokinetic energy conversion devices provide the facility to capture energy from water
flow without the need of large dams, impoundments, channels or deviation of the water as in …

Vortex generators (VGs) have proven their capabilities in wind turbine applications to delay
stall in steady flow conditions. However, their behaviour in unsteady conditions is …

The vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs), as common wind turbines for harvesting wind
energy, have wide prospects of development. However, the VAWTs are periodically …

A detailed numerical study has been carried out to investigate the effects of leadingedge
protuberance as a novel flow-separation control-technique for vertical-axis-windturbine …

Because of the deterioration of aerodynamic performance of airfoils due to the dynamic stall
of large wind turbine blades, a miniaturised remote-wireless-controlled actuating power …

The installation of a small rod in front of the leading edge of the symmetrical aerofoil as a
passive control approach was proposed to control the dynamic stall of the Darrieus vertical …

The purpose of present paper is to adopt two-dimensional numerical simulation to
investigate the flow field and flow control effect around a straight-bladed vertical axis wind …

Recent studies have revealed that passive leading-edge slots on the pressure side has the
potential to increase both the peak and overall CL/CD of airfoils and may possess an …

A transient numerical simulation was carried out to investigate the convection heat transfer
enhancement of a heated surface in an airflow channel using a synthetic jet. The study was …

The salmon farming industry has recently shifted to larger culture tanks with greater water
flows to optimize the land-based production, but tanks approaching 1000 m 3 in volume …
