From Dead-Band to Steady Rotation: Three-Dimensional Vortex Dynamics of Self-Starting Vertical-Axis Wind Turbines
The self-starting behavior of vertical-axis wind turbines is strongly influenced by the development of vortical structures along the span. However, a fully coupled high-fidelity three-dimensional analysis of this process requires substantial computational resources. This study presents a computationally efficient, span...
