Cfd for Wind and Tidal Offshore Turbines (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783319365619)

The book encompasses novel CFD techniques to compute offshore wind and tidal applications.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques are regarded as the main design tool to explore the new engineering challenges presented by offshore wind and tidal turbines for energy generation. The difficulty and costs of undertaking experimental tests in offshore environments have increased the interest in the field of CFD which is used to design appropriate turbines and blades, understand fluid flow physical phenomena associated with offshore environments, predict power production or characterise offshore environments, amongst other topics.
