Abstract:Thermographic flow visualization is a non-contact, non-invasive approach for assessing the aerodynamic state of wind turbine rotor blades and, as a result, the overall efficiency of the wind turbine. The distinguishability between the laminar and turbulent flow regimes in operating wind turbines cannot be easily increased intentionally and is totally dependent on the energy input from the sun. To deal with low-contrast measurement conditions and improve the distinguishability between flow regimes, advanced ima… Show more
