Power generation from wind energy is almost entirely performed in rural locations or at sea, and very little attention has been given to the use of wind turbines in urban locations. Since the re-emergence of wind turbines, the majority of their applications are in large commercial wind farms in rural areas or out at sea, and there is an increasing focus on the use of wind turbines within an urban environment possibly using existing structures, such as bridges and viaducts. There are very few existing buildings which have been designed from the ground-up to include wind turbines in the structure. In order to estimate the wind resources and the performance of a turbine at a particular site, a CFD model is designed and CFD calculations are performed. In order to simplify the modelling of a wind turbine actuator, disc theory is applied. Actuator disc theory is used, as it allows the aerodynamic behaviour of a wind turbine to be analyzed by just considering the energy extraction process without a specific wind turbine design. The power output of wind turbines installed beneath an already existing civil infrastructure is determined and analyzed.

集成在现有民用基础设施中的风力涡轮机性能的 CFD 预测

风能发电几乎完全在农村地区或海上进行,很少有人关注在城市地区使用风力涡轮机。由于风力涡轮机的重新出现,它们的大部分应用是在农村地区或海上的大型商业风电场中,并且越来越关注可能使用现有结构的城市环境中的风力涡轮机的使用,例如作为桥梁和高架桥。很少有现有建筑是从头开始设计的,在结构中包括风力涡轮机。为了估计特定地点的风力资源和涡轮机的性能,设计了 CFD 模型并执行 CFD 计算。为了简化风力涡轮机执行器的建模,应用了圆盘理论。使用致动器盘理论,因为它允许仅通过考虑能量提取过程来分析风力涡轮机的空气动力学行为,而无需特定的风力涡轮机设计。确定和分析安装在现有民用基础设施下的风力涡轮机的功率输出。
