High-Reynolds-number wind turbine blade equipped with root spoilers – Part 1: Unsteady aerodynamic analysis using URANS simulations

<p>A commercial wind turbine blade equipped with root spoilers is analysed using 2D URANS computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to assess the unsteady impact of passive devices. In this work, we present the 2D CFD unsteady results from a non-rotating single thick section located at the root end o...
