Simulations Pinpoint Wind Turbine Vantage Points

Posted Mon February 10, 2014 @10:59PM

Phys.org has posted the article Simulations Pinpoint Wind Turbine Vantage Points detailing renewable energy researcher's use of CFD for optimizing wind turbine performance.

"Through wind simulation in the target area, CFD helps to find the right place for the turbine with higher wind speed to avoid re-circulation and shadow zones, also putting the machine where it will generate more power," Mr Tabrizi says.
