Inexpensive airfoil shape optimization for vertical axis wind turbine and its validation
In this research, an inexpensive aerodynamic shape optimization of airfoil is performed for Darrieus type vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) evaluations of various airfoil shapes are treated inexpensively by considering the apparent flow velocity magnitudes and app...
