An Innovative Design of a Microtab Deployment Mechanism for Active Aerodynamic Load Control
This study presents an innovative design of a microtab system for aerodynamic load control on horizontal-axis wind-turbine rotors. Microtabs are small devices located near the trailing edge of the rotor blades and enable a rapid increase or decrease of the lift force through deployment of the tabs o...
