Optimal Wind Turbine Operation by Artificial Neural Network-Based Active Gurney Flap Flow Control

Optimal Wind Turbine Operation by Artificial Neural Network-Based Active Gurney Flap Flow Control

Flow control devices have been introduced in the wind energy sector to improve the aerodynamic behavior of the wind turbine blades (WTBs). Among these flow control devices, Gurney flaps (GFs) have been the focus of innovative research, due to their good characteristics which enhance the lift force t...
