A full-scale 3D Vs 2.5D Vs 2D analysis of flow pattern and forces for an industrial-scale 5MW NREL reference wind-turbine
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)NREL 5MW reference turbine, which is a popular, realistic and standardized industrial scale offshore turbine model, is used in this work for understanding the associated flow-complexities and for testing models. For such ... -
A step towards reduced order modelling of flow characterized by wakes using Proper Orthogonal Decomposition
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)High fidelity simulations of flow can be quite demanding, involving up to O(106) to O(109) degrees of freedom, and several hours or days of computational time, even on powerful parllel architectures. These techniques become ... -
Effect of turbulence intensity on the performance of an offshore vertical axis wind turbine
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Offshore wind energy is one of the most competitive renewable energy resources available to us, which until now been under- exploited. Most of the problems associated with wind farm installation like land acquisition, low ... -
Impact of urban density and building height on energy use in cities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Compact cities have been attributed to lower per capita energy use. However, the complexity of relationships between the elements that constitute energy consumption in the urban system is poorly understood. Little or no ... -
Industrial scale turbine and associated wake development -comparison of RANS based Actuator Line Vs Sliding Mesh Interface Vs Multiple Reference Frame method
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This current work compares the three methodologies (Actuator Line model (ALM), Sliding Mesh Interface (SMI) and Multiple Reference Frame (MRF)) in modeling an industrial scale reference turbine at different tip speed ratios ... -
Investigation of the impact of wakes and stratification on the performance of an onshore wind farm
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)This work investigates the effects of wakes and stratification on the performance of turbines operating in the Bessaker wind farm. The wind farm is located in a highly complex terrain. Most dominant wind directions recorded ... -
Isogeometric methods for CFD and FSI-simulation of flow around turbine blades
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Coupled fluid-structure interaction simulations of wind turbines have traditionally been considered computationally too expensive to carry out. However, more powerful computers and better solution techniques based on ... -
Large Scale Tertiary CO2 EOR in Mature Water Flooded Norwegian Oil Fields
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)A technical-economical model for a large-scale infrastructure combining CO2 EOR and aquifer storage has been used to construct a scenario including 23 Norwegian Continental Shelf oil fields that have been identified as ... -
Quasi-Static & Dynamic Numerical Modeling of Full Scale NREL 5MW Wind Turbine
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Simulations of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) 5MW wind turbine under quasi-static Multiple Reference Frame (MRF) and dynamic Sliding Mesh Interface (SMI) methodologies are presented. Two reference zone ... -
Spline based Mesh Generator for high fidelity simulation of flow around turbine blades
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Mesh generation involving complex geometries, such as wind turbine blades, is highly complicated. The problem is generally addressed using tetrahedral meshes, or hybrid meshes with hexahedral elements close to the body and ...
