Abstract:This study presents the results of a collaborative effort between academia and industry aimed at further enhancing the benefits provided by Vortex Generators and Gurney Flaps. To achieve this objective, an integrated approach was employed, involving wind tunnel experiments, on-site measurements, and computational simulations to design devices tailored for an onshore (Vestas V52, 850 kW) turbine and assess their influence on turbine performance. Device selection was based on wind tunnel measurements, while thei… Show more
