RICHMOND-NAVARRO, Gustavo; FALLAS-HERNANDEZ, Emanuel; PADILLA-BARRIENTOS, José Alejandro e JIMENEZ-CECILIANO, Maximino. Main wind tunnels in wind energy research around the world. Tecnología en Marcha [online]. 2022, vol.35, n.3, pp.178-194. ISSN 0379-3982. http://dx.doi.org/10.18845/tm.v35i3.5711.
A literature review about the most relevant wind tunnels in wind energy research is presented. A systematic search was carried in the Web of Science (WoS) database in which 93 papers were filtered by year from 2016 to 2020 and different relevance criteria. From the papers, 34 different wind tunnels were identified around the world. The eight tunnels with the most publications were selected and the research carried in them is presented. The main topics found are research in horizontal wind turbines (HAWT), vertical wind turbines (VAWT), turbine wake, airfoils and wind resource. This review has the objective to serve as a reference guide to researchers in wind energy that require to do experimentation in a wind tunnel.
