N2 - Previous studies have found that the Sprayed Liquid Flap (SLF) can be modeled using potential flow as an alternative to three-dimensional, multiphase, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The objective is to expand on the previous studies by examining the SLF in the context of rotating flows such as wind turbines. Computational Fluid Dynamic simulations will be used to determine the effectiveness of the Blade Element Momentum Method as an estimator for a wind turbine equipped with a sprayed liquid flap. Once this method is validated the power, thrust, and torque coefficients of cases with and without the sprayed liquid flap will be compared.
