Conditional Sampling Stereoscopic PIV Measurement around the Blade of the Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

抄録

The three-dimensional flow characteristics of a new hybrid vertical axis wind turbine have been investigated by conditional sampling stereoscopic PIV^* in order to clarify the three-dimensional motions of the upper surface flow at the edge of the turbine blade which is moving perpendicularly to the flow. The experimental apparatus is constructed using the PIV measurement system with a conditional sampling device and a new hybrid vertical axis wind turbine installed in a circulating water channel.
