Micro Abstract:
This contribution presents the shape optimization of wind turbine blades in the context of a fluid-structure interaction simulation.Vertex Morphing method,which is a node-based shape control technique, is used to find optimal design of the blades.Gradient-based optimization together with continuous adjoint based shape sensitivity analysis is employed to handle the large number of design variables.The fluid-structure interaction problem is solved using a partitioned, strong coupling algorithm.
