文摘

A BEM model for Darrieus wind turbines is developed and validated. The DeepWind performances in the baseline configuration are estimated. The impact on loads is estimated considering different number of blades. A comparison based on performance is performed considering different airfoils. An optimization algorithm is adopted to find the best performing chord distribution.
