The effect of using winglets to enhance the performance of swept blades of a horizontal axis wind turbine
One of the recent methods to improve the performance of horizontal axis wind turbine is to attach a winglet at the tip of the blade of these turbines. Winglets reduce the effect of vortex flow at the blade tip and thus improve the performance of the blade. This article presents a parametric study us...
