Parametric Design of Turbomachinery Blades
EUROCON 2005 - The International Conference on "Computer as a Tool", 2005A software is presented for the design of turbomachinery blades. It provides the ability to interactively construct 3D turbomachinery parametric bladings of various types. The blades' as well as the hub and shroud surfaces are modeled as NURBS 3D surfaces, although the design parameters used for their construction correspond to 2D sections.

Computational Design of Turbomachine Blades
Journal of Aircraft, 1980Based upon Wu's general three-dimensional turbomachine flow theory, a set of computer programs was established to measure flow along the relative stream surfaces S1 and S2, employing nonorthogonal curvilinear coordinates and nonorthogonal velocity components.

Automatic Design and Optimization of Wind Turbine Blades
2006 International Conference on Computational Inteligence for Modelling Control and Automation and International Conference on Intelligent Agents Web Technologies and International Commerce (CIMCA'06), 2006This paper is concerned with the description of an automatic design environment developed for the generation of optimal windmill blade profiles as well as the presentation of some results of its application. The objective is to provide a tool for the definition of wind turbine blades that are adapted to specific locations characterized by particular ...

Impact of Aerodynamics on Blade Design
2014Now having introduced all knowledge from fluid mechanics, it is high time to try to give an overview on what is really used in practical wind turbine blade design. Referring to Chap. 10 and esp. Figure 10.1, we see that with the development of huge offshore wind turbines up to 170 m rotor diameter, a period of exponential growth has started again after

Integration of Airfoil Design During the Design of New Blades
2013Despite the fact that the design of a new blade is a multidisciplinary task, often the different disciplines are combined together at later stage. Looking at the aerodynamic design, it is common practice design/select the airfoils first and then design the blade in terms of chord and twist based on the initial selection of the airfoils.

Blade Design, Manufacture, and Testing
2011In Chap. 5 it was shown that the design of an optimum power-extracting blade is straightforward, at least when tip losses can be ignored. However, the last chapter highlighted the importance of starting for small wind turbine blades, and the associated issues of resistive and aerodynamic torque.
