Abstract: The aerodynamics of a small wind turbine blade was captured using a γ–Reθ k–ω shear stress transport transitional turbulence model tuned with production limiter coefficients at a Reynolds number of 1.70×105. The computational ...

Abstract: The accurate simulation of the aerodynamic behavior of low Reynolds number (Re) cambered airfoils requires the ability to capture the transitional separated boundary layer (BL) that occurs naturally on the surface of the ...
