The Design of Oscillating Hydrofoil Current Generation Device

Article Preview

Abstract:

The oscillating hydrofoil current generation device utilizes a typical movement type, which can transform energy effectively from current. The study shows that the geometrical profile of blades is the fundamental factor to the efficiency. In order to resolve the problem, this paper adapt the BEM(blade elements momentum) theory, which plays an important role in resolving the turbine blade design. Use the MATLAB to calculate of the constraint equations, then translate the coordinates which has got through the calculation to Solidworks which is a convenient 3D modeling soft. In the end we will give an example which has modeled 3-D hydrofoil BEM theory.
