Reynolds number dependence of cross-flow turbine performance and near-wake characteristics

Posted 29 May 2014

Authors: P. Bachant and M. Wosnik

This paper, published in the proceedings of the 2014 Marine Energy Technology Symposium (METS2014), assesses Reynolds number dependece of the performance and near-wake for a cross-flow turbine (UNH-RVAT).

Abstract

Minimizing wake losses in wind or marine hydrokinetic (MHK) turbine arrays is a...

Performance and near-wake measurements for a vertical axis turbine at moderate Reynolds number

Posted 01 Sep 2013

Authors: P. Bachant and M. Wosnik

This paper, published in the proceedings of the 2013 ASME Fluids Engineering Division Summer Meeting (FEDSM2013), details experimental measurements of performance and near-wake characteristics for a vertical axis turbine at moderate Reynolds number.

Abstract

Experiments were performed with a 1 m diameter,...
