Numerical Investigation of Aerodynamic Performance and Loads of a Novel Dual Rotor Wind Turbine

The objective of this paper is to numerically investigate the effects of the atmospheric boundary layer on the aerodynamic performance and loads of a novel dual-rotor wind turbine (DRWT). Large eddy simulations are carried out with the turbines operating in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) and i...
