Stabilized space–time computation of wind-turbine rotor aerodynamics

Abstract: We show how we use the Deforming-SpatialDomain/Stabilized Space-Time (DSD/SST) formulation for accurate 3D computation of the aerodynamics of a windturbine rotor. As the test case, we use the NREL 5MW offshore baseline wind-turbine rotor. This class of computational problems are rather challenging, because they involve large Reynolds numbers and rotating turbulent flows, and computing the correct torque requires an accurate and meticulous numerical approach. We compute the problem with both the original versio… Show more

“…This most recent DSD/SST formulation with the turbulence model is a space-time version [9] of the residual-based variational multiscale (VMS) method [10][11][12][13]. It was successfully tested on wind-turbine rotor aerodynamics in [14].…”

“…The computations reported in 2011 were for detailed parachute FSI analysis [74][75][76], arterial FSI analysis [77][78][79][80][81], and wind-turbine aerodynamics [82][83][84]. The detailed studies included different trial canopy design configurations of the Orion spacecraft parachutes, Orion spacecraft parachute clusters with two and three parachutes, FSI-based dynamical analysis of the Orion spacecraft parachutes and parachute clusters, patient-specific cerebral arteries with aneurysm, and full-scale wind-turbine rotors.…”
