CFD in Wind Energy: The Virtual, Multiscale Wind Tunnel
Over the past two decades, computational fluid dynamics and particularly the finite volume method have been increasingly used to predict the performance of wind turbines within their environment. Increases in available computational power has led to the application of RANS-based models to more and m...
