Computational Studies of the Effects of Active and Passive Circulation Enhancement Concepts on Wind Turbine Performance

With the advantage of modern high speed computers, there has been an increased interest in the use of first-principles based computational approaches for the aerodynamic modeling of horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT). Since these approaches are based on the laws of conservation (mass, momentum, and...
