We work with
Wind Turbines and Solar Panels
Improve the aerodynamic performance of your renewable energy installations
Wind behavior determines both energy production and the structural integrity of power plants. Using CFD calculations, we analyze airflow over wind turbines and solar panels, optimizing their design and placement.
Aerodynamic optimization of wind turbines
The aerodynamic design of the turbine blade is one of the most critical factors in the energy production of a wind turbine. Small improvements in geometry translate into significant gains over its lifespan.
Using CFD calculations, we evaluate lift and drag coefficients, identify stall zones, and quickly compare different configurations without the need for physical prototypes.
Aerodynamic loads on solar panels
Wind exerts significant stress on photovoltaic panels and their support structure, especially in large-scale plants where the arrangement and orientation directly influence the resulting loads.
Using CFD simulation, we obtain the exact pressure distributions on each panel, analyze the effect of the arrangement within the plant, and provide the necessary data to correctly size the anchors and the structure.
