Mesh-Free Analysis of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Using Lattice Boltzmann Method and Various Turbulence Models

This study aims to investigate the aerodynamic analysis of a Darrieus-type vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) using the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM). The objective is to assess the accuracy and performance of the meshless LBM approach in predicting torque coefficients, velocity, turbulence intensit...
