Towards Smart Blades for Vertical Axis Wind Turbines: Different Airfoil Shapes and Tip Speed Ratios

Abstract: Abstract. Future wind turbines will benefit from state-of-the-art technologies that allow them to not only operate efficiently in any environmental condition, but also to maximize the power output and cut the cost of energy production. Smart technology, based on morphing blades, is one of the promising tools that could make this possible. The present study serves as a basis for identifying morphing airfoils as functions of azimuthal angle and tip speed ratio for vertical axis wind turbines. The focus of this w… Show more

“…A thorough analysis of the aerodynamics of VAWT blades aiming to reduce instability is presented in [5]. Using the new Morphing Blades concept, the authors aim and succeed in demonstrating performance at the design model level that is simulated with various profiles and values for the TSR, gaining power, improving endurance and reliability.…”
