Numerical Simulation of Heat Transfer Characteristics for Two Metallic TPS Structures Haiyong Liu1,a , Hongfu Qiang2,b 1201 Section , Xi’an High-Tech Institute, Xi’an, China 2201 Section , Xi’an High-Tech Institute, Xi’an, China ahelian_xicheng@163.com, bQiang@263.net Keywords: Numerical simulation; Heat transfer characteristics; TPS; CFD software; Heat conductivity.
Numerical simulations were conducted on the three-dimensional TPS models using CFD software of Gambit and Fluent.
The results of simulation investigation showed that: The metallic layer had poor capability to restrict the heat conductivity.
That would be helpful to optimize the design of the TPS, extent the understanding of the CFD software, and improve and modify the heat transfer models for suitable utilization in the simulation under extremely high temperature.
This could be validated in further simulation with taking thermal radiation effect into consideration.

One-year SCADA data from a wind park has been used to make a comparison with the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based numerical simulations of wind resource assessment and Annual Energy Production (AEP).
CFD simulations provided a good insight of the flow behavior across each wind turbine, which helped to better understand the wind turbine wake flow effects on wind turbine performance and annual energy production.
The yellow cells highlight cases where the SCADA AEP values are higher than the gross AEP in CFD simulations, which means the actual wind energy production is "ideal" for turbines 0573, 4531, 4532, 4533 and 4541.
