abstract = "When optimizing turbine blade properties, using a time varying, unsteady simulation allows for high-fidelity representations of the wake dynamics. Unfortunately these types of optimizations are prohibitively expensive in terms of computation time and memory requirements. This presentation aims to show a method of transferring the wake dynamics of an unsteady simulation to a much more computationally tractable steady state simulation using hybrid actuator disks informed by unsteady, actuator line model dynamics.",
