Spacing Effects in Guided Vertical‐Axis Wind Turbine Arrays for Highway Energy Harvesting Under Multi‐Vehicle Wake Conditions

ABSTRACT Highway‐induced airflow generated by passing vehicles represents an underutilized source of localized renewable energy that can be harvested using vertical‐axis wind turbines (VAWTs). While prior studies have demonstrated the feasibility of single‐turbine configurations,...

Turbulence‐Intensity Effects on the Aerodynamic Performance of an H‐Type Darrieus Wind Turbine: A URANS Parametric Study

ABSTRACT The effect of inlet turbulence intensity (TI) on the aerodynamic performance of a three‐bladed H‐type Darrieus vertical‐axis wind turbine with NACA 0021 blades was investigated using two‐dimensional (2D) unsteady Reynolds‐averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS) simulations. The r...
