For the first time, engineers at MIT have developed a comprehensive, physics-based model that accurately represents the airflow around rotors even under extreme conditions. The new model enables the ...

A collaboration between University of Wyoming researchers and a wind energy company has provided new insights into the use of high-performance computing to predict wind resources. A team led by ...

The turbulence created by wind farms can mix layers of air near the surface, altering temperatures downwind. But a properly designed turbine can both avoid this mixing and increase the efficiency of ...

South Burnett Regional Council is considering an application for a temporary accommodation village capable of housing hundreds of fly-in, fly-out workers at the Kingaroy Airport.

In the past, when designing the profile of rotor blades, the layout of wind turbines in a farm, or the day-to-day operation of wind turbines, engineers have relied on ad hoc adjustments added to the ...
