Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive review about passive flow control devices (PFCDs) implemented in lift‐type vertical axis wind turbine (LVAWT), focusing on the underlying flow physics mechanisms and to what extents they can improve the LVAWT performance. In addition, some novel concepts that can be potentially implemented in future are also presented. Based on literature review, it is observed that PFCDs can enhance the power generation of LVAWT up to 172.73% compared with a clean LVAWT. However, this significant improvement still needs to be evaluated carefully by considering the economic feasibility aspect, because PCFDs can increase the design complexity, weight penalty and manufacturing cost of LVAWT. Furthermore, it is essential to design and evaluate the effectiveness of PFCDs using a full VAWT configuration by considering the blade rotating effects and blade‐to‐blade interactions. Finally, evaluation of PFCDs needs to be performed at all ranges of tip speed ratios (TSRs) operation conditions, as there are clear evidences on the correlation between LVAWT performance and different range of TSRs.

使用被动流量控制装置提高升力型垂直轴风力涡轮机性能的综述

本文对升力型垂直轴风力涡轮机（LVAWT）中实现的被动流量控制装置（PFCD）进行了全面的综述，重点介绍了潜在的流量物理机制以及它们可以在多大程度上提高LVAWT的性能。此外，还提出了一些有可能在未来实现的新概念。根据文献综述，可以观察到，与清洁的LVAWT相比，PFCDs可以将LVAWT的发电量提高172.73%。然而，这种显著的改进仍然需要通过考虑经济可行性来仔细评估，因为PCFD会增加LVAWT的设计复杂性、重量惩罚和制造成本。此外，通过考虑叶片旋转效应和叶片间的相互作用，使用全VAWT配置设计和评估PFCD的有效性至关重要。最后，需要在所有叶尖速比（TSR）运行条件范围内对PFCDs进行评估，因为有明确证据表明LVAWT性能与不同叶尖速比范围之间的相关性。

期刊介绍： Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Energy and Environmentis a new type of review journal covering all aspects of energy technology, security and environmental impact. Energy is one of the most critical resources for the welfare and prosperity of society. It also causes adverse environmental and societal effects, notably climate change which is the severest global problem in the modern age. Finding satisfactory solutions to the challenges ahead will need a linking of energy technology innovations, security, energy poverty, and environmental and climate impacts. The broad scope of energy issues demands collaboration between different disciplines of science and technology, and strong interaction between engineering, physical and life scientists, economists, sociologists and policy-makers.
