Effect of Blade Profile on the Performance of Wells Turbine under Unidirectional Sinusoidal and Real Sea Flow Conditions

This paper presents the effect of blade profile and rotor solidity on the performance of Wells turbine operating under unidirectional unsteady flow conditions. In the study, four kinds of blade profile were selected, that is, NACA0020, NACA0015, CA9, and HSIM 15-262123-1576. The experiments have bee...
