Journal ArticleDOI
CFD study of Savonius wind turbine: 3D model validation and parametric analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, a CFD study is conducted in order to characterize the dynamic behavior of a Savonius vertical axis wind turbine, which is executed using the open source code, OpenFOAM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison between steady and moving railway vehicles subjected to crosswind by CFD analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the relative motion between train and infrastructure is investigated in order to analyze the differences which occur in wind tunnel experience between static and moving vehicles, and the results support adoption of still model tests on STBR scenario as representative of train aerodynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cross wind and rollover risk on lightweight railway vehicles
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of lateral wind on different type of railway vehicles, comparing the cross wind behaviour on a high speed train and on a modern train used for urban and suburban transportation, were investigated.

Parametric numerical study of Savonius wind turbine interaction in a linear array
TL;DR: In this paper, the Savonius turbine numerical modeling and mutual turbine interaction in a linear array farm was carried out using the OpenFOAM solver, and the results showed a performance increase as the distance between the turbines reduces, higher efficiency for small wind incidence angles, and a larger number of turbines.
