dc.description.abstract | With wind energy extraction constantly increasing, the interest in small-scale urban wind turbines is also expanding. Given that these machines often work in adverse operating conditions (Earth’s boundary layer, vortex trails of surrounding objects, small and changeable wind speeds), additional elements that locally augment wind velocity and facilitate turbine start may be installed. This paper investigates possible benefits of adding an optimized flow concentrator to a vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) rotor. Three-dimensional, unsteady, turbulent, incompressible flow simulations of both isolated rotor consisting of three straight blades and a rotor with flow concentrator have been performed in ANSYS FLUENT by finite volume method for several different operational regimes. This type of flow simulations is challenging since flow angles are high, numerous flow phenomena and instabilities are present and the interaction between the blades and detached vortices can be significant. The rotational motion of the blades is solved by the unsteady Sliding Mesh (SM) approach. Flow field is modeled by Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) equations with k-ω SST turbulence model used for closure. Both quantitative and qualitative examinations of the obtained numerical results are presented. In particular, the two computed power coefficient curves are compared and the advantages of installing a flow concentrator are accentuated. | sr |
