The Archimedes spiral wind turbine (ASWT), as a novel type of horizontal-axis wind turbine, is well suited for remote islands. To explore the aerodynamic performance and coupling gain effect of ASWT array, a three-dimensional numerical simulation was carried out using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The influence of arrangement, relative spacing, and rotation configuration on the performance of a double-unit array and triangular array is studied. The results demonstrate that, in parallel arrangements, the double unit achieve higher performance than an isolated ASWT within a specific range of parallel spacing. However, the effect of performance improvement gradually diminishes as the parallel spacing increases. In tandem arrangements, the upstream unit performance remains largely unaffected when tandem spacing exceeds 5 D, while the downstream unit's performance declines notably with reducing tandem spacing. The downstream unit in reverse rotation configuration accrues more energy than its counterpart operating at the co-rotation configuration. In triangular arrangements, the reverse rotation configuration can achieve better performance due to the meshing effect between the wake of the upstream ASWT and the downstream ASWT. This configuration allows the array system to maintain a higher maximum power output within a smaller spacing. The research results can provide a basis and reference for designing the layout scheme of a multi-unit ASWT power station. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
