Aerofoil optimization for improving the power performance of a vertical axis wind turbine using multiple streamtube model and genetic algorithm

This paper reports on the optimization of the NACA0015 aerofoil for improving the power performance of a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT). The target range of the chord Re is 3 × 10(5)–10(6), the tip speed ratio (TSR) is 2–6 and the solidity is 0.2–0.6. This aerofoil is widely applied in small-scal...
