Numerical and experimental study of hydrofoil-flap arrangements for hydrokinetic turbine applications

In this work, the efficiency of two horizontal-axis hydrokinetic turbines, whose blades were designed with and without multi-element hydrofoil cross-sections, has been numerical and experimentally investigated for tip speed ratio (λ) values ranging between 2.5 and 9.0 to compare the experimental rot...
