Numerical Simulation of Unsteady Aerodynamic Performance of Novel Adaptive Airfoil for Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

Numerical Simulation of Unsteady Aerodynamic Performance of Novel Adaptive Airfoil for Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

The aerodynamic performance of the blade determines the power and load characteristics of a wind turbine. In this paper, numerical research of the active deformation of an airfoil with equal thickness camber line was carried out, which shows the great potential of this active flow control method to...
