Numerical Study of the Dynamic Stall Effect on a Pair of Cross-Flow Hydrokinetic Turbines and Associated Torque Enhancement Due to Flow Blockage

An open-source 2D Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) simulation model was presented and applied for a laboratory-scaled cross-flow hydrokinetic turbine and a twin turbine system in counter-rotating configurations. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was compared with previously publishe...
