- Study demonstrated for the first time use of the Computational Fluid Dynamics COSA technology (EPSRC-grant EP/F038542/1) for industrial decision-making. Following successful validation against turbine measurements of National Renewable Energy Laboratory, COSA was used to assess two alternative wind turbine rotor designs developed with low-fidelity engineering, enabling a considered choice of the design to be produced. This was a collaborative project with wind turbine manufacturer GaiaWind (jlandringa@yahoo.co.uk) funded by EPSRC. The article received the 2019 Best Paper Award of the ASME Wind Energy Division (herreral@asme.org); following this project, the appointed researcher undertook PhD at Politecnico di Milano in November 2019.
