Concluding Remarks<br />

• <strong>Hybrid</strong> CFD approach looks very promising <strong>for</strong> wind<br />

turbine aerodynamic analyses<br />

– Grid size and run times much less than full domain CFD<br />

– Results similar to full-domain CFD<br />

– Results reasonably insensitive to size <strong>of</strong> <strong>Navier</strong>-<strong>Stokes</strong> domain<br />

and location <strong>of</strong> polylines<br />

• User Fortran in CFX solver and Power Scripting in CFX-<br />

POST allows the development <strong>of</strong> an integrated hybrid<br />

CFD design system<br />
