In this paper, NACA0018 airfoil is proposed to be open able at low tip speed ratio to work as drag device and then be closed to take the normal blade geometry of the airfoil at higher tip speed ratios to work as lift device. A moving mesh technique was used to analyze 2D unsteady flow around VAWT modeled with airfoils opening angles set to 60, 45, 30 and 15 degrees from main axis using CFD solver...
