Optimization of Wind Turbine Airfoils/Blades and Wind Farm Layouts
… address the shape optimization of wind turbine airfoils and blades. In recent years, the airfoil sections with blunt trailing edge (called flatback airfoils) have been proposed for the inboard regions of large wind-turbine blades because they provide several structural and aerodynamic …

Unsteady separation control on wind turbine blades
… near the root regions of turbine blades where thick airfoil sections are generally used. Further research was conducted to determine the effects of wakes on the occurrence of dynamic stall. For this study, the mean and turbulent wind conditions in the wake were acquired through Large Eddy …

Computational analysis of multielement airfoils for wind turbines
Multielement airfoil configurations have shown promise in improving the aerodynamic and structural characteristics of the inboard section of megawatt-scale wind turbine blades by increasing the lift coefficients and lift-to-drag ratios. Steady-state, two-dimensional CFD calculations were carried …
