Melani, P. F. (author), Balduzzi, F. (author), Brandetti, L. (author), Ferreira, Carlos (author), Bianchini, A. (author)Simulation methods ensuring a level of fidelity higher than that of the ubiquitous Blade Element Momentum theory are increasingly applied to VAWTs, ranging from Lifting-Line methods, to Actuator Line or Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The inherent complexity of these machines, characterised by a continuous variation of the angle of attack...journal article 2020

van Tilborg, Frank (author), van Raemdonck, G.M.R. (author), Sciacchitano, A. (author), Casalino, D. (author)This article analyses the flow field between two 1/8-scale Generalized European Transport System (GETS) models which are placed in a two-vehicle platoon at close distances. Numerical simulations using the lattice Boltzmann method together with a wind tunnel experiment (open jet facility, OJF) were executed. Next to balance measurements,...journal article 2019
