Acoustically, however, the cans communicate via the upstream located compressor plenum, or at the downstream gaps found at the transition to the turbine inlet. In the present study, a coupling condition that is based on a Rayleigh conductivity and acoustic flux conservation is derived. It enables acoustic communication between adjacent cans, in which one-dimensional acoustic waves propagate. In addition, because can-annular systems commonly feature a discrete rotational symmetry, the acoustic field can be expressed as a Bloch-periodic wave in the azimuthal direction. We demonstrate how the coupling conditions resulting in a combustion system with $N$ cans can be expressed as an effective impedance for a single can. By means of this Bloch-type boundary condition, the thermoacoustics of a can-annular system can be analyzed considering only one can, thus reducing the size of the problem by a factor of N. Using this method, we investigate in frequency domain the effect of the coupling strength of a generic can-annular combustor consisting of 12 identical cans, which are connected at the downstream end. We describe generic features of can-annular systems and derive results on the frequency response of the cans at various Bloch numbers in the low-frequency and high-frequency limits. Furthermore, the formation of eigenvalue clusters with eigenvalues of close frequency and growth rate, but very different mode shapes is discussed.

However, adjacent cans are able to communicate acoustically, which provides dynamic coupling of the entire can-annular arrangement. Recently, it was shown that the acoustic coupling is not negligible and can cause clustering of eigenfrequencies. In this study, we present a low-order modeling framework for self-excited thermoacoustic oscillations in generic can-annular combustors consisting of N identical cans. The dynamics of the flames are modeled with the nonlinear G-equation; the acoustic model accounts for plane acoustic waves inside the cans and can-to-can communication. The latter is enabled through a coupling boundary condition that is based on conservation of mass and a Rayleigh conductivity. For weak coupling between adjacent cans, the thermoacoustic feedback cycle shows clusters of linearly unstable modes of different azimuthal order, which are close in frequency and growth rate. Their interaction in the nonlinear regime is investigated using time-domain simulations. Two simulations for generic can-annular combustors consisting of 4 and 6 cans with weak acoustic coupling are discussed in this study. We observe a strong interaction between the modes, which can cause long transition times and allows modes that do not dominate the system dynamics in the linear regime to be dominant in the nonlinear regime. While the N=6 case converges to a periodic oscillation pattern with one dominant frequency, the N=4 case converges to a quasi-periodic oscillation involving modes of different azimuthal order. Moreover, we observe a synchronization of these modes. These results raise the questions whether it is possible to predict which mode(s) will dominate the system in the saturated state and under which conditions synchronization of clustered modes can occur.

The motivation of using these technologies is always an enhancement of the wind turbine performance (increase of power production, load reduction, noise reduction, etc.) in comparison to the standard blade. Passive flow control solutions can be limited to static add-ons or involve more significant modifications of the blade for dynamic approaches. Furthermore, these technologies can be included in the initial design of the blade or included later as add-ons to improve the performance of an existing blade design. A large number of passive technologies have been proposed for wind turbine applications, although the level of maturity is not the same for all of them ranging from conceptual studies in some cases to commercial products in others. Some representative examples of specific technologies are included in this chapter: vortex generators, static miniflaps, root spoilers, serrations, winglets, passive flaps, and aeroelastic coupling. For each technology, some aspects related to the state of the art, main concept, impact on the wind turbine performance, application, and design have been described. Finally, passive flow control technologies have to be integrated into the design process of wind turbines. To select and properly apply the most suitable technology for each specific problem, the chapter highlights the importance of modeling tools, design methodologies, objectives and restrictions, design parameters, and scale of impact of each passive flow control solution. In addition, from a general point of view, some design guidelines have been mentioned.

Automotive manufacturers estimate that a drag reduction of 30% contributes to 10g/km of CO2 reduction. However, this drag reduction should be obtained without constraints on the design, the safety, comfort and habitability of the passengers. Thus, it is interesting to find flow control solutions, which will remove or remote recirculation zones due to separation edges with appropriate control techniques. In automotive sales, the SUV, 4x4 and compact cars represent a large part of the market share and the study of control approaches for this geometry is practically useful. In this work, appropriate control techniques are designed to decrease the drag forces around a reduced scale SUV car benchmark called POSUV. The control techniques are based on the DMD (Dynamic Mode Decomposition) algorithms generating an optimized drag reduction procedure. It involves independent transient inflow boundary conditions for flow control actuation in the vicinity of the separation zones and time resolved pressure sensor output signals on the rear end surface of the mockup. This study, that exploits dominant flow features behind the tailgate and the rear bumper, is performed using Large Eddy Simulations on a sufficient run time scale, in order to minimize a cost function dealing with the time and space average pressure coefficient. The resulting dynamic modal decomposition obtained by these LES simulations and by wind tunnel measurements has been compared for the reference case, in order to select the most appropriate run time scale. Analysis of the numerical results shows a significant pressure increase on the tailgate, for independent flow control frequencies. Similar decomposition performed in the wake with and without numerical flow control help understanding the flow modifications in the detachment zones.

The thermodynamic model of the gas turbine consists of a compressor with a polytropic efficiency of 90%, a combustor modeled as either a pulse detonation combustor (PDC) or as an isobaric homogeneous reactor, and a turbine, the efficiency of which is calculated using suitable turbine operational maps. A simulation is conducted using the one-dimensional reacting Euler equations to obtain the unsteady PDC outlet parameters for use as turbine inlet conditions. The efficiencies for the Fickett–Jacobs and Joule cycles are then compared. The Fickett–Jacobs cycle shows promise at relatively low compressor pressure ratios, whereas the importance of the harvesting of exhaust gas kinetic energy for the cycle performance is highlighted.

O.Paschereit P.Stathopoulos P.Berndt R.Klein article Nayeri2015 DEWEK 2015 2015 Modern turbines control load and power by actively adjusting the angle of attack via pitch variation. However, this technology is not suited for compensating the inflow variations generated by the atmospheric boundary layer or from upstream wind turbines (wind farms) or yaw errors, sudden gusts or turbulence which can occur within seconds or less and can have local impact on a rotor blade. In a collaborative research effort of five German universities, passive and active flow control methods for the alleviation of dynamic loads, load fluctuations and for reduction of wake effects are investigated, both experimentally and numerically. Furthermore, numerical tools suitable for evaluating the overall cost reduction and benefit of flow control methods on wind turbines will be validated and extended such that the results can be transferred to fullscale wind turbines under realistic inflow conditions. http://15.dewek.de/fileadmin/downloads/Book_of_Abstracts_2015.pdf DEWI C.

O.Paschereit inproceedings Vey2015a 2015 ASME Paper GT2015-43407 V009T46A021 (6 pages) Results from a quantitative tuft flow visualization of a utility scale wind turbine undergoing a yaw movement are presented. Based on the turbine’s SCADA data suitable pre- and post-yaw timeframes were defined and the surface flowfields were analysed. A distinct asymmetry between the surface flow patterns of the 90° and 270° azimutal blade positions was observed in the pre-yaw timeframe. After the turbine yawed back into the wind the symmetry was restored. Yaw-misalignment is a source of dynamic loads which limit a turbine’s life time. The characterization of the involved flow structures and their dynamics is an essential step towards possible future load alleviation techniques. The quantitative tuft flow visualization technique is a measurement tool that can be used to assess the surface flow field.
