Structural design and analysis of composite blade for horizontal-axis tidal turbine

Structural design and analysis of composite blade for horizontal-axis tidal turbine

In this work, we report on the structural design of a 5-m-long composite blade intended for use in a horizontal-axis tidal turbine. The blade geometry is constructed through an optimization process to obtain the maximum power coefficient at the desired tip speed ratio of 4.5 by applying the blade el...
