I am interested in the numerical characterisation (3D-CFD) of aerodynamics and flow-induced noise (near-field) generated during the operation of a standalone horizontal axis wind turbine. Since I am attempting this activity for the first time, I was wondering if there are any publicly available CAD and performance data of any test wind turbine to validate the numerical methodology.

On a side note, if anyone could recommend me some pivotal pertinent literature, it'll be a great help.

Also, as my knowledge on the state-of-the-art is limited, I was wondering about the practices for modelling impeller rotation. I understand that specifying an angular velocity to the rotating domain should be relatively straightforward but are there any literature/methodologies available to model the motion of the blades based on air-velocity boundary conditions.

Thank you for reading and contributing.
