To reduce the release of CO 2 from traditional energy, wind energy is developed very fast all
over the world. This means that more large wind turbines will be installed on land and more …

Unsteady aerodynamic loads and fluctuating output power of wind turbines remain
challenging to predict accurately due to the incomplete understanding of blade flow …

In the analysis of the aerodynamic performance of wind turbines, the need to account for the
effects of rotation is important as engineering models often failed to predict these …

Passive vortex generators (VGs) have been widely used on wind turbines to improve the
aerodynamic power. Nevertheless, most studies of VGs are conducted on flat plates and …

The unsteady nature of wind turbine noise is a major reason for annoyance. The variation of
far-field sound pressure levels is not only caused by the continuous change in wind turbine …

This article describes Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of flows in a wind
farm in complex terrain in Shaanxi, China and the comparisons of the computational results …

In this paper, a computational model for predicting the aerodynamic behavior of wind turbine
wakes and blades subjected to unsteady motions and viscous effects is presented. The …

Experimental results and complimentary computations for airfoils with vortex generators are
compared in this paper, as part of an effort within the AVATAR project to develop tools for …

In this paper a surrogate optimization methodology using a three-dimensional viscous-
inviscid interaction code for the aerodynamic design of wind-turbine rotors is presented. The …

This book presents the state of the art in the analyses of three-dimensional flow over rotating
wind turbine blades. Systematic studies for wind turbine rotors with different sizes were …
