Q2. What is the effect of the flap on the wind turbine?
The flap creates additional lift (and drag), which can be used to locally control varying loads on large wind turbine airfoils (Bach et al. 2014, 2015a).
Q3. Why are swirl jets widely used in the gas turbine industry?
Swirling jets are widely used in the gas turbine industry due to their capability of obstacle-free flame anchoring and enhanced mixing.
Q4. What is the shedding of the upstream vortex?
Depending on the phase lag between the natural oscillation and the shedding of the upstream vortex, the developing wake vortex is either strengthened or weakened.
Q5. What is the spectral density of the underlying data?
The autocorrelation coefficient itself represents the spectral content of different time scales and wavelengths and it is directly related to the power spectral density of the underlying data.
Q6. What is the third mode of the vortex shedding?
The third mode represents the second harmonic of the vortex shedding, with a clear spectral peak and clean spatial mode with twice the wavelength of the shedding mode.
Q7. What is the main idea behind the recently introduced DMD approach?
The recently introduced extended DMD (Williams, Kevrekidis & Rowley 2015) tries to overcome the limitations encountered by the (linear) DMD approach when trying to decompose data from nonlinear systems.
Q8. What is the reason why the elements along the diagonals of R look so similar?
This is why the elements along the diagonals of R look so similar, as they represent only relative changes with respect to the time step on the main diagonal.
Q9. What is the frequency of the acquisition of the flow?
The considered flow shows strong vortex shedding at the forcing frequency (the acquisition frequency is 25 times the forcing frequency).
Q10. Why do the harmonics appear in every mode coefficient?
Due to the purely statistical POD approach, these higher harmonics appear in every mode coefficient, which contradicts the idea of a proper modal decomposition.
Q11. What is the significance of the POD?
the POD indicates the presence of a single mode at low frequency, together with other coherent structures that are not properly resolved.
Q12. What is the common method of identifying coherent structures?
These methods commonly span the mode space according to fixed frequencies, which enables the identification of coherent structures within small spectral bandwidths.
Q13. What is the filter size for the underlying mode of interest?
The experiences gained throughout the first application show that a filter size of one to two periods of the mode of interest gives the best results.
