Effect of Stall Delay Model on Momentum Distribution of Wind Turbine’s Blade under Yaw Condition: Compared to MEXICO Experiment

A. Khanjari; E. Mahmoodi; A. Sarreshtehdari; M. Kordi

Volume 9, Issue 1 , January 2018, , Pages 16-23

https://doi.org/10.5829/ijee.2018.09.01.03

Abstract
  In this paper, the effect of stall delay on distribution of normal forces in different sections of rotor are studied by an enhanced version of the blade element momentum theory (BEM), based on the 3D correction Chaviaropoulos and Hansen mode. This model is computed at wind speed of 24m/s under the yaw ...  Read More
