Recently, the issue of advisability building dedicated highspeed railways (HSR) in Russia for transportation passengers and goods has often been raised scientific industry environment. The key risk such large-scale investment projects is a significant or rather long payback period due to lower population density areas proposed HSR compared to, example, China. In addition, when planning capitali...

Variable-speed, horizontal axis wind turbines use bladepitch control to meet specified objectives for three regions of operation. This paper focuses on controller design for the constant power production regime. A simple, rigid, non-linear turbine model was used to systematically perform trade-off studies between two performance metrics. Minimization of both the deviation of the rotor speed fro...

Abstract This study is to investigate the stall flutter of high-speed rotating blade section small-scale blades subjected combined flap-lag motion. The work motivated by destructive flapwise vibrations blades. aeroelastic governing equations combine a spring-mass-damper equivalent structure and nonlinear aerodynamic model suitable for pure pitching resulting are solved linearization time-marchi...

Preview wind speed measurements from a forward looking Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) system located in the hub of a wind turbine can be used by a feedforward blade pitch control system to mitigate structural loads. For individual blade pitch control, a separate preview estimate of the effective wind speed encountered by each blade must be available. One way of providing an estimate of the...

In this paper, using sliding mesh model, the numerical simulation of small vertical axis wind turbine aerodynamic performance was studied with FLUENT software. Got change rule of four same thickness and different camber‘s NACA series asymmetrical airfoil moment coefficient of the wind turbine and wind power machine with the tip speed ratio. Wind turbine benchmark blade around the flow field was...

Wind turbine manufacturers publish and certify power curves for their turbines. These turbine power curves are used for planning purposes and estimating total wind power production. When a wind plant consisting of many turbines connects to the utility grid and starts operation, the focus shifts to the entire plant’s performance. An equivalent wind plant power-curve becomes highly desirable and ...

This study examined the aerodynamic power output change of wind turbines with inter-turbine spacing variation for a 6 MW wind farm composed of three sets of 2 MW wind turbines using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The wind farm layout design is becoming increasingly important as the use of wind energy is steadily increasing. Among the many wind farm layout design parameters, the inter-turbi...
