Accurate and Reliable CFD Analysis of Vortex Generators

GridPro meshes enable fast, efficient, and precise vortex generator computations for 3D fluid analysis in wind turbines.

Vortex in wind turbine

Design Engineers of Vortex Generators Have to:

  • Assess the vortex generator impact on aerodynamics and turbine efficiency.

  • Have a detailed insights into drag and lift forces acting on vortex generators.

  • Assess the performance of vortex generators under diverse operating conditions.

  • Identify potential issues such as flow separation and turbulence.

  • Understand parameter variations for robust design and optimization.

GridPro Benefits

Topology template

The topology template of GridPro is flexible to accommodate multiple vortex generator orientations.

BL clustering

for fully resolving the boundary layer region adjacent to the wall for viscous simulations.

Nesting

Another tool for local refinement of prominent flow features such as flow separation, wakes, and tip vortices.

Enrichment

for local refinement of flow physics such as flow separation, wakes, tip vortices, etc.

Specialized GridPro Tools for Vortex Generator Meshing

  • Enrichment – for local refinement of flow physics such as flow separation, wakes, tip vortices, etc.
