A comparative study of numerical schemes and turbulence models for wind turbine aerodynamics modelling
Baxevanou, C. A.; Vlachos, N. S. (2004)This paper is a comparative study of combining turbulence models and interpolation schemes to calculate turbulent flow around a NACA0012 airfoil before and after separation. The calculations were carried out using the code ... -
Evaluation study of a Navier-Stokes CFD aeroelastic model of wind turbine airfoils in classical flutter
Baxevanou, C. A.; Chaviaropoulos, P. K.; Voutsinas, S. G.; Vlachos, N. S. (2008)This paper describes a new aeroelastic numerical model, which combines a Navier-Stokes CFD solver with an elastic model and two coupling schemes for the study of the aeroelastic behaviour of wind turbine blades undergoing ... -
Numerical modelling of flow and transport processes in a calciner for cement production
Fidaros, D. K.; Baxevanou, C. A.; Dritselis, C. D.; Vlachos, N. S. (2007)Controlling the calcination process in industrial cement kilns is of particular importance because it affects fuel consumption, pollutant emission and the final cement quality. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of ... -
Numerical simulation of thermal behavior of a ventilated arc greenhouse during a solar day
Fidaros, D. K.; Baxevanou, C. A.; Bartzanas, T.; Kittas, C. (2010)In the present study the transport phenomena occurring inside a ventilated arc type tunnel greenhouse are simulated during a solar day taking into account the optical properties of plants only in the photosynthetic active ... -
A parametric study of a solar calcinator using computational fluid dynamics
Fidaros, D. K.; Baxevanou, C. A.; Vlachos, N. S. (2007)In this work a horizontal rotating solar calcinator is studied numerically using computational fluid dynamics. The specific solar reactor is a 10 kW model designed and used for efficiency studies. The numerical model is ... -
A parametric study of the aeroelastic behaviour of wind turbine blades in classical flutter
Baxevanou, C. A.; Chaviaropoulos, P. K.; Vlachos, N. S. (2006)A parametric study of the aeroelastic behaviour of a wind turbine blade 'typical section' in classical flutter is presented, using a new numerical model. The aerodynamic loads are computed by solving the RANS equations ... -
Thermal behaviour of a tunnel arc greenhouse during a solar day
Fidaros, D. K.; Baxevanou, C. A.; Bartzanas, T.; Kittas, C. (2008)The present study investigates numerically the effect of transient solar radiation distribution during day-time in arc type tunnel greenhouse with continuous side vents and a tomato crop using a commercial CFD code. A two ...
