Passively morphing trailing-edges for load alleviation in tidal turbines
A rigid and a morphing blade with a flap were tested at heave in uniform flow. The flap was located at x/c=0.75 from the leading-edge of the morphing blade. The water flume, where the experiments were carried, is located ... -
PIV dataset for near wake of spinnaker - Vortex flows of downwind sails
Three different spinnaker twist prototypes were manufactured (“Geometries” dataset) and their near wake was studied with Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The reference sail (high twist geometry) was recorded in uniform ... -
Experimental flow data from co-located Single beam Acoustic Doppler Profiler and Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter in the FloWave Ocean Energy Research Facility
Acoustic Doppler Profilers (ADPs) are routinely used to measure flow velocity in the ocean, enabling multi-points measurement along a profile while Acoustic Doppler Velocimeters (ADVs) are laboratory instruments that provide ... -
