Abstract: The Cheng-Cycle turbine engine is a superheated steam injected gas turbine cycle system. This work is based on the Garrett 831 gas turbine. The development effort involved the design and ...

Abstract: The effects of wind shear and turbulence on rotor fatigue and loads control are explored for a large horizontal axis wind turbine in variable speed operation at wind speeds from 4 to 20 ...

Abstract: Active aerodynamic control, in the form of closed-loop actuation of blade-tip ailerons or all-moveable blades, is investigated as a means of increasing the structural fatigue life of HAWT rotors. ...
