The flow characteristics and stall delay phenomenon of a stall regulated wind turbine rotor due to blade rotation in steady state non-yawed conditions are investigated. An incompressible Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes solver is applied to carry out the separate flow cases at high wind speeds from 11 m/s to 25 m/s with an interval of 2 m/s. The objective of the present research effort is to validate a first-principles based approach for modeling horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT) under stalled flow conditions using NREL/ Phase VI rotor data. The computational results are compared with the experimental data and predicted values derived by a new stall-delay model.
