Thesis Topic/Title:
Computational and Experimental Study of Flow Separation on 3D Model of Wind Turbine Blades
Description
Flow separation has a significant impact on the performance of wind turbine blades. These blades have variable cross-sectional area and angle of attack, and the blade linear speed varies with the length of the blade. These variables make it a challenge to enhance blade performance, and a thorough investigation of flow characteristics is needed. Coupling both computational and experimental available tools will enhance the knowledge of the three-dimensional separation mechanism.
