Mode classification for vortex shedding from an oscillating wind turbine using machine learning
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract This study presents an effective strategy that applies machine learning methods to classify vortex shedding modes produced by the oscillating cylinder of a bladeless wind turbine. A 2-dimensional computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulation using OpenFOAMv2006 was developed to simulate a bladeless wind turbines vortex shedding behavior. The simulations were conducted at two wake modes (2S, 2P) and a transition mode (2PO). The local flow measurements were recorded using four sensors: vorticity, flow speed, stream-wise and transverse stream-wise velocity components. The time-series data was transformed into the frequency domain to generate a reduced feature vector. A variety of supervised machine learning models were quantitatively compared based on classification accuracy. The best performing models were then reevaluated based on the effects of artificial noisy experimental data on the models’ performance. The velocity sensors orientated transverse to the pre-dominant flow ( u y ) achieved improved testing accuracy of 15% compared to the next best sensor. The random forest and k -nearest neighbor models, using u y , achieved 99.3% and 99.8% classification accuracy, respectively. The feature noise analysis conducted reduced classification accuracy by 11.7% and 21.2% at the highest noise level for the respective models. The random forest algorithm trained using the transverse stream-wise component of the velocity vector provided the best balance of testing accuracy and robustness to data corruption. The results highlight the proposed methods’ ability to accurately identify vortex structures in the wake of an oscillating cylinder using feature extraction.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
