Abstract
Separation of flow over a wind turbine blade reduces its overall efficiency. Flow control technologies enable the control of the separation of flow and at the same time assist in stalling the wind turbine blade when required, and when the wind turbine exceeds the rated power. Fluidic oscillators which produce oscillating output flow as a result of Coanda effect, serve as active flow control devices. The fluidic oscillator in an array is used in order to serve the dual purpose of flow control and stalling of wind turbine blades. Fluidic oscillators under different conditions has been tested under a variety and the outcome of the tests performed has been discussed. The development of a new fluidic oscillator array system, designed to produce stable oscillations for flow control across the span of a wind turbine blade, along with the details of automation of such a system, to work independently without human interference, is provided.
