Analysis and design of shrouded turbines
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- A shrouded wind turbine consists of a rotor that is enclosed within an aerodynamically shaped flow-accelerating device. This work aims to improve the theoretical knowledge of shrouded turbines and to establish a better understanding of the underlying aerodynamics. A cost-effective tool is developed and utilized to improve the design of shrouded turbines. Specifically, the aerodynamics of such a system is investigated using a range of modeling fidelities and a technique for rapid design is also developed and used to demonstrate considerable gains in power extraction.
