| Abstract | New approach for aero-structural optimization of wind turbine rotor blades: • Simultaneous design of the airfoils, together with the rest of the aerodynamic and structural parameters of the blade • General and flexible free-form optimization • Does not require a priori assumptions on the most appropriate airfoils Results: • Converges to convincing blade configurations • When starting from simple symmetric airfoils, exhibits expected emergence of positively cambered airfoils • Natural emergence of flatbacks in the inner span portion of the blade, as seen on many modern large wind turbine blades |
