The flow past a flatback airfoil with flow control devices: benchmarking numerical simulations against wind tunnel data
<p>As wind turbines grow larger, the use of flatback airfoils has become standard practice for the root region of the blades. Flatback profiles provide higher lift and reduced sensitivity to soiling at significantly higher drag values. A number of flow control devices have been proposed to imp...
