Design Optimization of Hub for 3-Bladed Horizontal Axis Tidal Turbine

Abstract:

In this paper, Wind turbines knowledge, which is already matured enough, is effectively used for design of horizontal axis tidal turbine (HATT) hub. Design optimization keeping in view the shape and strength for minimum weight was done using ANSYS software. Maximum stress concentration areas are found to be the blade roots and edges of shaft connection. A novel approach is used to optimize the fillet radii along with overall thickness.
