About This Special Issue
Wind energy has proven to be a viable energy alternative for many of the industrialized nations according to the scientific study and it is very important as one of the clean energy resources. Wind turbines are devices which convert kinetic energy of wind into rotary mechanical energy which can be used to produce electricity, charging devices and drive machinery etc. Wind turbines are the most important tool of the wind energy. This special issue aims to reach all those with an interest in wind energy field from academic research, industrial development through to applications, including individual wind turbines and components, wind farms and integration of wind power plants especially computational research progress in wind turbine. Original research and review papers are requested in any aspect of innovative computational research e.g. (Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique, numerical simulation and optimization method).
Aims and Scope:
  1. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
  2. Wind characteristics and structure
  3. Aerodynamics of rotors and blades
  4. Installations and applications
  5. Advancement of wind power capture
  6. Optimization method
  7. Numerical simulation
  8. Wind turbine noise
