Catching the Wind: Understanding the Dynamics of Renewable Energy – Dr Glen Whitehouse, Continuum Dynamics, Inc.

earth and environment, engineering and tech

As renewable energy sources such as wind, wave, and solar become more ubiquitous, the importance of understanding the detailed mechanisms of their operation is essential. In particular, with a dynamic and turbulent energy source like wind, an accurate way of modelling the flow and interaction with the wind turbine is highly desirable. Dr Glen Whitehouse and the team at Continuum Dynamics Inc. have been developing innovative ways to do just this.
