7 results about "Aerodynamics" patented technology

Aerodynamics, from Greek ἀήρ aer (air) + δυναμική (dynamics), is the study of motion of air, particularly as interaction with a solid object, such as an airplane wing. It is a sub-field of fluid dynamics and gas dynamics, and many aspects of aerodynamics theory are common to these fields. The term aerodynamics is often used synonymously with gas dynamics, the difference being that "gas dynamics" applies to the study of the motion of all gases, and is not limited to air. The formal study of aerodynamics began in the modern sense in the eighteenth century, although observations of fundamental concepts such as aerodynamic drag were recorded much earlier. Most of the early efforts in aerodynamics were directed toward achieving heavier-than-air flight, which was first demonstrated by Otto Lilienthal in 1891. Since then, the use of aerodynamics through mathematical analysis, empirical approximations, wind tunnel experimentation, and computer simulations has formed a rational basis for the development of heavier-than-air flight and a number of other technologies. Recent work in aerodynamics has focused on issues related to compressible flow, turbulence, and boundary layers and has become increasingly computational in nature.

Airfoil Design for Wakeless Wind Turbine Tower Structures

InactiveUS20130156596A1Wind motor supports/mountsReaction enginesNacelleVertical axis
A novel wind turbine is provided that reduces or eliminates aerodynamic wake downwind of the tower to allow for the wind turbine to face away from the direction of the wind. The wind turbine comprises a tower and a rotor rotatably mounted to a nacelle which is mounted to the tower in stationary relationship therewith. The tower has a yaw bearing at its base so that it is rotatable about a vertical axis. In one embodiment the tower comprises a single airfoil symmetric about its major chord. In another embodiment the tower comprises a pair of spaced apart asymmetric airfoils defining a nozzle-like space there between through which a relatively high speed jet of air can travel to fill the aerodynamic wake zone behind the tower.
