New Mechanical Engineering Study Findings Has Been Reported by a Researcher at Islamic Azad University (Genetic algorithm optimization of a horizontal axis wind turbine blade section performance equipped with a single dielectric barrier ...)

2022 JUN 09 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at NewsRx Life Science Daily -- Investigators publish new report on mechanical engineering. According to news reporting out of Islamic Azad University by NewsRx editors, research stated, “The usage of a single dielectric barrier discharge plasma actuator (SDBD-PA) device for improving a aerodynamic performance of a locally developed horizontal axis wind turbine blade section is studied with one of the most recent electrostatic models.”

The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Islamic Azad University: “To characterize this blade section behavior over a wide range of operating conditions of SDBD-PA and to advance its performance with a fully automated optimization algorithm, a computationally cost efficient direct regression model is proposed. In this paper, 512 comprehensive numerical simulations are carried out to derive the direct regression model for aerodynamic performance calculation when the PA is in use. However, to obtain highly accurate results, two different models for angle of attacks higher and less than [Formula: see text] are suggested.”

According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “The proposed mathematical model within the specified boundary limits allows for a rapid linkage between aerodynamic performance and genetic algorithm which canbe made to acquire optimum results for each case without requiring burdensome numerical simulations. It is identified that superimpose input parameters effects onto each other is not explanatory of the final effect on aerodynamic performance and interaction effects should be seriously taken into consideration at the proposed regression model.”
