Flow measurement in a wind tunnel with blockage screens
The small and medium-scale wind turbine development have been improved due to their adaptability in offshore and onshore localities for wind farm applications. Blockage effects caused by numerous impediments restrict the flow-field near the turbine and impact the turbine's performance. The testing and optimization of turbines in such conditions at laboratory-level are challenging due to the unavailability of customized wind tunnel configurations with blockage screens. The present work focuses on the design, development and evaluating aerodynamic performance of wind tunnel with and without blockage screens. A comprehensive design is established by evaluating losses in each section, uncertainties, velocity, forces, and turbulence intensity in the wind tunnel through the experimental analysis. The novel blockage screens are arranged to maintain 5 % and 10 % blockage percentage for wind velocity range of 2–14 m/s. The maximum velocity reduction with 5 % blockage is 41.40 % and this drop reaches to 67.84 % for 10 % blockage. Consequently, available wind power is seen to undergo a maximum reduction of 79.88 % and 96.67 %, respectively.
期刊介绍:
Flow Measurement and Instrumentation is dedicated to disseminating the latest research results on all aspects of flow measurement, in both closed conduits and open channels. The design of flow measurement systems involves a wide variety of multidisciplinary activities including modelling the flow sensor, the fluid flow and the sensor/fluid interactions through the use of computation techniques; the development of advanced transducer systems and their associated signal processing and the laboratory and field assessment of the overall system under ideal and disturbed conditions.
FMI is the essential forum for critical information exchange, and contributions are particularly encouraged in the following areas of interest:
Modelling: the application of mathematical and computational modelling to the interaction of fluid dynamics with flowmeters, including flowmeter behaviour, improved flowmeter design and installation problems. Application of CAD/CAE techniques to flowmeter modelling are eligible.
Design and development: the detailed design of the flowmeter head and/or signal processing aspects of novel flowmeters. Emphasis is given to papers identifying new sensor configurations, multisensor flow measurement systems, non-intrusive flow metering techniques and the application of microelectronic techniques in smart or intelligent systems.
Calibration techniques: including descriptions of new or existing calibration facilities and techniques, calibration data from different flowmeter types, and calibration intercomparison data from different laboratories.
Installation effect data: dealing with the effects of non-ideal flow conditions on flowmeters. Papers combining a theoretical understanding of flowmeter behaviour with experimental work are particularly welcome.
