Modeling and Analysis of the Leading-Edge Vortex on Flapping Foil Turbines in Swing-Arm Mode
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hydrokinetic flapping foil turbines in swing-arm mode have gained considerable interest in recent years because of their enhanced capability to extract power, and improved efficiency compared to foils in simple mode. The ...
Dynamic Transition of Unsteady Supersonic Flow From Mach to Regular Reflection Over a Moving Wedge
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The design of supersonic and hypersonic air-breathing vehicles is influenced by the transition between the Mach reflection (MR) and regular reflection (RR) phenomena. The purpose of this study is to investigate the dynamic ...
Dynamic Analysis of the Optimized Savonius Vertical Axis Wind Turbine Composite Blades
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article presents a comprehensive study of the dynamic behavior of small vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) based on local fabricated Savonius VAWTs, which is suitable for countries that have a moderate wind speed. ...
