Designing the primary airfoils for the outboard part of wind turbine blades is a complicated problem of balancing structural, aerodynamic, and acoustic requirements. This paper presents an optimization method for the overall performance of outboard wind turbine airfoils. Based on the complex flow characteristics of the rotor blades and the varying requirements along the span of a blade, the design...
A crucial problem of designing thick airfoils is balancing structural and aerodynamic requirements. This paper documented a new idea to deal with the thick airfoil's design. Firstly, the relative thickness of the original airfoil was increased to enhance its structural property. Then the overall aerodynamic performance was improved by the optimization design method. Specifically, this paper put forward...
