Dataset
This ZIP archive contains the dataset, analysis code, and supplementary materials from the MSc thesis “Aerodynamics of a Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine Blade in Sinusoidal Inflow Conditions,” conducted at TU Delft. The research objective was to investigate the aerodynamic response and energy extraction potential of a single-blade H-Darrieus Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) subjected to sinusoidal variations in wind speed, representative of offshore inflow conditions. Data were collected in the DCSC wind tunnel using controlled experiments with detailed measurements of inflow velocity, turbine performance, and flow characteristics. The dataset includes raw and processed experimental data, scripts for analysis, and supporting documentation, enabling replication of results and further study of VAWT aerodynamics under dynamic wind conditions.
