Onset of Radiatively Driven Convection in Ice-Covered Freshwater Lakes

Benjamin J. Smith, Bingfei Yan, Till J. W. Wagner +2

This work investigates the formation and growth of Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities (RTIs) during the onset of radiatively driven convection (RDC) in seasonally ice-covered freshwater…

Impacts of Blade Camber on Cross-Flow Turbine Performance and Loading

Ari Athair, Caelan Consing, Jennifer A. Franck +1

Cross-flow turbines show promise for renewable energy generation from wind and tidal sources. The rotating reference frame of cross-flow turbine blades results in virtual camber an…

Sweep Angle Effects of Flow Over a Seal Whisker-Inspired Undulated Cylinder

Trevor K. Dunt, Christin T. Murphy, Ondřej Ferčák +2

Flow over a seal whisker-inspired undulated cylinder at swept back angles is computationally investigated, comparing the vortex shedding, forces, and wake characteristics to those…

Experimental identification of blade-level forces, torque, and pitching moment for cross-flow turbines

Abigale Snortland, Katherine Van Ness, Jennifer A. Franck +3

Cross-flow turbine power is a net sum of power generation from rotating blades and power loss from rotating support structures. While the aggregate forces and torques at the turbin…
