发明名称 A METHOD FOR DETERMINING OPTIMUM VORTEX GENERATOR PLACEMENT FOR MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY ON A RETROFITTED WIND TURBINE GENERATOR OF UNKNOWN AERODYNAMIC DESIGN
摘要 A method of optimizing performance of a wind turbine electric generator (WTG) comprises the steps of measuring the performance of a wind turbine electric generator, defining an area on a blade of the WTG, placing stall flags within said defined area, monitoring the behavior of the stall flags when the WTG is operating, determining a stall line based upon the stall flags during operation, installing vortex generators on the blade adjacent to and upwind of said stall line, monitoring the behavior of said stall flags during operation with vortex generators installed on all blades, and measuring the performance of the WTG to detect improved performance. If there is little or no improvement, repeating the steps on a second WTG using different placement within the defined area for the vortex generators.
