CFD analysis of number of blades on the performance of counter rotating wind turbine designed using blade element momentum theory under transient condition

Unsteady CFD simulations on the effects of number of blades on counter rotating wind turbine (CRWT) were carried out in order to investigate the performance and the flow characteristics. In this paper, 2-bladed and 3-bladed CRWT were designed using Blade Element Momentum Theory (BEMT) which comprise...
