Modelling the effect of freestream turbulence on dynamic stall of wind turbine blades

Large-eddy simulations of flow over a pitching airfoil are conducted to study the effect of freestream turbulence on the aerodynamic characteristics. A primary field of applications of this study is wind turbine aerodynamics. The wind turbines operate in yaw in large scale variations of wind directi...
