  2. 1. Fluid mechanical simulations and development for vertical axis turbines

    Author : Anders Goude; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aerodynamics of vertical axis turbines is typically studied using streamtube, vortex or CFD models. This thesis focuses on the first two models, which are the computationally faster ones. READ MORE

  4. 2. Fluid Mechanics of Vertical Axis Turbines : Simulations and Model Development

    Author : Anders Goude; Olov Ågren; Carlos Simão Ferreira; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Wind power; Marine current power; Vertical axis turbine; Wind farm; Channel flow; Simulations; Vortex model; Streamtube model; Control system; Graphics processing unit; CUDA; Fast multipole method; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : Two computationally fast fluid mechanical models for vertical axis turbines are the streamtube and the vortex model. The streamtube model is the fastest, allowing three-dimensional modeling of the turbine, but lacks a proper time-dependent description of the flow through the turbine. READ MORE

  5. 3. Aeroacoustic Prediction for Vertical Axis Wind Turbines

    Author : Aya Aihara; Hans Bernhoff; Anders Goude; Mats Åbom; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fluid; acoustics; noise; sound; wind energy; vertical axis wind turbine; aerodynamics; airfoil; simulations; CFD; LES;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic prediction of vertical axis wind turbines, using computational fluid dynamics simulations. Noise pollution from wind turbines is one of the disadvantages of wind energy, calling for strategies to reduce noise levels. READ MORE

  6. 4. Aerodynamics of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines : Development of Simulation Tools and Experiments

    Author : Eduard Dyachuk; Hans Bernhoff; Sandra Eriksson; Anders Goude; Mac Gaunaa; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : wind power; vertical axis turbine; H-rotor; simulations; streamtube model; vortex model; dynamic stall; measurements; blade; force; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : This thesis combines measurements with the development of simulation tools for vertical axis wind turbines (VAWT). Numerical models of aerodynamic blade forces are developed and validated against experiments. The studies were made on VAWTs which were operated at open sites. READ MORE

  7. 5. Aerodynamic Studies of Vertical Axis Wind Turbines using the Actuator Line Model

    Author : Victor Mendoza; Anders Goude; Hans Bernhoff; Robert Flemming Mikkelsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : wind power; vertical axis wind turbines VAWTs ; actuator line model ALM ; dynamic stall model DSM ; atmospheric boundary layer ABL ; wake deflection; atmospheric boundary layer ABL ; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the unsteady aerodynamics involved in the operation of vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs). The main focus is to represent and understand the most relevant phenomena within the resulting flow pattern as the wake structure, loads on the different turbine components and the performance of the rotor.
