Bionic coupling design and aerodynamic analysis of horizontal axis wind turbine blades

Abstract With millions of years of evolution, owls have developed many excellent characteristics in terms of their flight. The speed of an owl in flight is similar to the relative speed of the blade of a small wind turbine with respect to air. Therefore, the owl wing airfoil is selected as the desig...
