Rigorous Industry Testing
University
of Dayton Research Institute
The patented technology behind TFC Energy's low-speed wind turbine went
through rigorous industry testing by the University of Dayton
Research Institute (UDRI).
UDRI is the research arm of the University
of Dayton, located in Dayton, Ohio. UDRI is a national leader in
scientific and engineering research, serving government, industry,
and not-for-profit customers. Their full-time professional staff
of engineers and scientists conduct research and provide support
in a wide variety of technical areas.
Computational Fluid Dynamics Testing
UDRI conducted CFD analysis. Computational
Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a numerical technique for fluid flow analysis
based on the work of Claude-Louis Navier and George Gabriel Stokes. CFD
analysis is generally performed on a computer and often validated
with wind tunnel data.
Testing phases included: Screening Analysis, Airfoil Optimization Testing,
and Validation Testing.
