Numerical study of icing of horizontal axis wind turbine blade

Více o knize

The book delves into the challenges posed by ice accumulation on wind turbines in cold climates, which impacts energy production and safety. It highlights the urgent need for effective de-icing systems and presents a collaborative research effort with the Austrian Institute of Technology, utilizing the ICEAC2Dv2 icing code. The thesis emphasizes the variability of numerical results based on input parameters and seeks to validate the code. Additionally, it explores a proposed method to mitigate ice formation, assessing its feasibility for practical application.
