2. 1. Wind turbine wakes : controland vortex shedding

   Author : Davide Medici; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind Energy; Power Optimisation; Active Control; Yaw; Vortex; Mechanical energy engineering; Mekanisk energiteknik;

   Abstract : Wind tunnel studies of the wake behind a model wind turbine have been made in order to get a better understanding of wake development as well as the possibility to predict the power output from downstream turbines working in the wake of an upstream one. Both two-component hot-wire anemometry as well as particle image velocimetry (PIV) have been used to map the flow field. READ MORE

4. 2. Aerolastic simulation of wind turbine dynamics

   Author : Anders Ahlström; Anders Eriksson; Martin O. L. Hansen; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Applied mechanics; wind turbine; aeroelastic modelling; rotor aerodynamics; structural dynamics; MSC.Marc; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : The work in this thesis deals with the development of an aeroelastic simulation tool for horizontal axis wind turbine applications. Horizontal axis wind turbines can experience significant time varying aerodynamic loads, potentially causing adverse effects on structures, mechanical components, and power production. READ MORE

5. 3. Wind turbine simulations using spectral elements

   Author : Elektra Kleusberg; Dan Henningson; Philipp Schlatter; Stefan Ivanell; Johan Meyers; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wind turbine; wakes; wake interaction; computational fluid dynamics; actuator line method; spectral elements; free-stream turbulence; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : Understanding the flow around wind turbines is a highly relevant research question due to the increased interest in harvesting energy from renewable sources. This thesis approaches the topic by means of numerical simulations using the actuator line method and the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations in the spectral element code Nek5000. READ MORE

6. 4. Numerical computations of wind turbine wakes

   Author : Stefan S. A. Ivanell; Dan Henningson; Peinke Joachim; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Actuator Line Model; Actuator Disc Model; Wind Turbine Wake; CFD; LES; EllipSys3D; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

   Abstract : Numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes equations are performed to achieve a better understanding of the behaviour of wakes generated by wind turbines. The simulations are performed by combining the in-house developed computer code EllipSys3D with the actuator line and disc methodologies. READ MORE

7. 5. Wind Turbine Models for Power System Stability Studies

   Author : Abram Perdana; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fixed-speed; variable-speed; validation; modelling; power system stability; frequency stability; aggregated model; wind turbine; voltage stability;

   Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to develop dynamic models of wind turbines for power system stability studies. More specifically, the wind turbine models are mainly intended for voltage and frequency stability studies. READ MORE
