Influence of sweep angle on leading edge vortex dynamics of a fully passive oscillating-plate hydrokinetic turbine prototype
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The present work assesses the use of spanwise flow in enhancing the performance of the fully passive oscillating-plate hydrokinetic turbine prototype by relating the dynamics of the leading edge vortex (LEV) to the power extraction performance. Two-dimensional (2D) planar and three-dimensional (3D) tomographic particle image velocimetry were employed to obtain quantitative flow structure of oscillating-plates undergoing heave and pitch motion in uniform inflow at Reynolds number of 21 000. A plate with a 6° sweep angle and an unswept plate (control case) were considered in the present study. Dynamics of the LEV were investigated using the patterns of the phase-averaged vorticity during the oscillation cycle. The 3D vector fields provided insights into the spanwise variation of the vortical structure and the rate of deformation of the vortex, which was determined by calculating the deformation terms in the vorticity transport equations which are related to the stability of the vortex. The results show evidence of a delay in the shedding of the LEV and an increase in its stability in the case of the swept plate, compared to the control case, which in turn benefit the power extraction performance at high inflow velocities.

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.
