Turbulent flow simulation of a single-blade Magnus rotor

Turbulent flow simulation of a single-blade Magnus rotor

Abstract This paper presents numerical studies of the Magnus effect for a kinetic turbine on a horizontal axis. To focus on the Magnus blade, a single self-spinning cylindrical blade is assumed. An iterative direct-forcing immersed boundary method is employed within the Eulerian-Lagrangian framework...
