Short summary
The majority of the wind turbine market is focused on large pitch-regulated machines, but small stall-regulated are still attractive because of their simplicity and robustness. This work focuses on aerodynamic section design for these machines and its impact on overall performance. The big challenge faced was that, beside the need to maximise the energy produced, the control of the machine depends on the section design. The results, however, showed a large performance gain and machine control.
