The unsteady power generation of a wind turbine translating in the streamwise direction is relevant to floating offshore wind turbines, kite-mounted airborne wind turbines, and other non-traditional wind-energy systems. To study this…
The wake-induced transition on the suction surface of a T106A low-pressure turbine (LPT) blade is investigated through a series of implicit large eddy simulations, solving the two-dimensional (2D) compressible Navier-Stokes equations (NSE).…
Effect of uniaxially-deformed aerogel on orientation of the order parameter of superfluid $^3He$ is considered. Approach used takes into account correlations in positions of particles forming aerogel. Calculations show that for the case of…
A volumetric Wankel steam expander has numerous advantages over other positive displacement machines as an expansion device due to its high power to weight ratio, compactness, lower noise, vibration, and potentially lower specific cost…
This study investigates the aerodynamic performance of the symmetric NACA 0018 airfoil under harmonic pitching motions at low Reynolds numbers, a regime characterized by the presence of laminar separation bubbles and their impact on…
A theoretical study of vesicles of topological genus zero is presented. The bilayer membranes forming the vesicles have various degrees of intrinsic (tangent-plane) orientational order, ranging from smectic to hexatic, frustrated by…
We study analytically the dynamic response of membrane aerofoils subject to arbitrary, small-amplitude chord motions and transverse gusts in a two-dimensional inviscid incompressible flow. The theoretical model assumes linear deformations…
Super-large-scale particle image velocimetry (SLPIV) using natural snowfall is used to investigate the influence of nacelle and tower generated flow structures on the near-wake of a 2.5 MW wind turbine at the EOLOS field station. The…
We investigate the influence of curvature and topology on crystalline wrinkling patterns in generic elastic bilayers. Our numerical analysis predicts that the total number of defects created by adiabatic compression exhibits universal…
Laminar-turbulent transition on a rotating wind turbine blade at a chord Reynolds number of $1 \times 10^5$ and varying angles of attack ($AoA$) is studied with direct numerical simulations and linear stability theory. The rotation effects…
Self-starting remains a key limitation of lift-driven vertical-axis wind turbines and is strongly influenced by geometric design choices that also govern steady-state performance. This work quantifies the roles of chord length and blade…
Efficiency increase is seen as one of the main goals in any energy converting device. In this direction, the present study aims to demonstrate that large-scale wind turbines can still be improved in order to generate larger amounts of…
This study investigates the three-dimensional organisation and evolution of stall cells in the separated flow region over an airfoil. Using a hybrid RANS/LES approach based on the DDES-SST turbulence model, we characterise the formation and…
The characteristics of complex turbulent boundary layers under adverse pressure gradients are assessed through well-resolved large-eddy simulations (LES) with the spectral-element code Nek5000. Two wing sections are analysed: a NACA0012 at…
When wind blows over the surface of a viscous liquid, a clear transition from irregular small-amplitude streamwise-oriented wrinkles to well-defined nearly two-dimensional regular waves is observed at a critical wind velocity. We examine…
We present experimental results on the relaxation dynamics of vesicles subjected to a time-dependent elongation flow. We observed and characterized a new instability, which results in the formation of higher order modes of the vesicle shape…
We study suspensions of oblate rigid particles in a viscous fluid for different values of the particle volume fractions. Direct numerical simulations have been performed using a direct-forcing immersed boundary method to account for the…
We report the experimental study of the degassing dynamics through a thin layer of shear-thinning viscoelastic fluid (CTAB/NaSal solution), when a constant air flow is imposed at its bottom. Over a large range of parameters, the air is…
The effect of high-amplitude harmonic surging on airfoil laminar separation bubbles was investigated theoretically, and experimentally in a dedicated surging-flow wind tunnel. A generalized pressure coefficient was developed that accounts…
We study single-phase and particulate turbulent channel flows, bounded by two incompressible hyper-elastic walls. Different wall elasticities are considered with and without a 10% volume fraction of finite-size rigid spherical particles,…
