| Abstract | The surface of a wind turbine blade operating in a Saharan environment is subjected to dust accumulation which in turn induces surface roughness. The current work aims at providing a deep insight into the physical phenomenon of dust accumulation and its impact on the blade's aerodynamic characteristics. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model coupled with a deposition model is developed to assess the performance degradation of wind turbines operating in the dusty Saharan regions of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The full two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations and the SST k-ω turbulence model were used to investigate the incompressible viscous flow past a two-dimensional airfoil section (NACA 63-215) of a wind turbine blade under clean and fouled surface conditions. The developed model is used to estimate the role roughness plays in promoting premature transition to turbulence and in fact flow separation has been identified by the numerical results. The effect of roughness height and roughness area on both the lift and drag coefficients have been inspected. For the purpose of validation, the model predictions are compared with the experimental data of Khalfallaha [1] and the numerical results of Nianxin Ren [3] and are found consistent with both. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
