Wind tunnel testing of a swept tip shape and comparison with multi-fidelity aerodynamic simulations
<p>One promising design solution for increasing the efficiency of modern horizontal axis wind turbines is the installation of curved tip extensions. However, introducing such complex geometries may move traditional aerodynamic models based on blade element momentum (BEM) theory out of their ra...
