Turbulence Modeling of Iced Wind Turbine Airfoils

Turbulence Modeling of Iced Wind Turbine Airfoils

Icing is a severe problem faced by wind turbines operating in cold climates. It is affected by various fluctuating parameters. Due to ice accretion, a significant drop in the aerodynamic performance of the blades’ airfoils leads to productivity loss in wind turbines. When ice accretes on airfoils, i...
