With all the concentrated efforts toward achieving cleaner energy, a Spanish startup aims to reinvent wind turbines. Better said, it aims to offer an alternative to traditional wind farms, much like ...
You don’t have to live near Hoover Dam to tap hydropower. Experts at Belgium’s Turbulent have developed a Vortex turbine that maximizes low-flow water from rivers and canals that also have low height ...
Across the world, wind power is growing fast—but not fast enough. To meet climate goals and reach carbon neutrality, the United Nations says global wind energy must triple in the next ten years.
In this special guest feature, Robert Roe from Scientific Computing World writes that HPC simulation provides a platform to develop advancements in energy generation technologies. Through the use of ...
As residents of the Twin Cities awoke on Jan. 29, the first of three straight days of subzero temperatures, about half of the region’s electricity was coming from wind farms dotting the Upper Midwest.
Over on his YouTube channel [Construction General] shows us how to convert a drain into a hydropower facility. This type of hydroelectric facility is known as a gravitation water vortex power plant.
This paper describes the formulation of a new model for the wake of a horizontal-axis wind turbine. As in many other models, the trailing vorticity is represented by a number of vortex lines which ...
