Pseudo three-dimensional numerical investigation of legacy vertical axis wind turbine configurations

Pseudo three-dimensional numerical investigation of legacy vertical axis wind turbine configurations

In this paper, a pseudo three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model of Sandia’s 17-meter Vertical Axis Wind Turbine is implemented and validated against experimental data for a Tip Speed Ratio of 4.60. The Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes equations and the Shear Stress Transport tur...
