Vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have been widely used in urban environments, which contain dust and experience strong turbulence. However, airfoils for VAWTs in urban environments have received considerably less research attention than those for horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs). In this study, the sensitivity of a new VAWT airfoil developed at the Lanzhou University of Technology (LUT) to...
A numerical model based on a boundary element method (BEM) is developed to predict the performance of two-body self-reacting floating-point absorber (SRFPA) wave energy systems that operate predominantly in heave. The key numerical issues in applying the BEM are systematically discussed. In particular, some improvements and simplifications in the numerical scheme are developed to evaluate the free...
