Predictions of unsteady HAWT aerodynamics in yawing and pitching using the free vortex method

Qiu, Yong-Xing; Wang, Xiao-Dong; Kang, Shun; Zhao, Ming; … - In: Renewable Energy 70 (2014) C, pp. 93-106

To predict the unsteady aerodynamic loads of horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) during operations under yawing and pitching conditions, an unsteady numerical simulation method is proposed. This method includes a nonlinear lifting line method to compute the aerodynamic loads on the blades and...
