Experimental Study Of Flow Field Of An Aerofoil Shaped Diffuser With A Porous Screen Simulating The Rotor

This study presents an experimental investigation on a diffuser augmented wind turbine (DAWT). A screen mesh is used to simulate the energy extraction mechanisms of a wind turbine in experiment. Different screen porosities corresponding to different turbine loading coefficients are tested. Measurements of the axial force and of the velocity...
