Effects of circular trailing edge with the dimple on flow separation of NACA S1210 hydrofoil. Point data files were imported into Microsoft Excel, formatted for ICEM import, and imported into the AIRFOIL SELECTION AND ANALYSIS.

The physical geometries of the airfoils and the meshing processes are completed in the ANSYS Mesh package ICEM.

The two different airfoil types for the turbines are assessed: a cambered S815 airfoil and a symmetric NACA0018 airfoil. Janajreh, “Development and application of an improved blade element momentum method model on horizontal axis wind turbines,” Int. In the lists, "Airfoils at Low Speeds" (SoarTech 8) is … This work aims at designing and optimizing the performance of a small Horizontal-Axis-Wind-Turbine to obtain a power coefficient (CP) higher than 40% at a low wind speed of 5 m/s.
