THE IMPACT OF BOUNDARY LAYER SUCTION ON THE ENERGY PERFORMANCE FOR SMALL WIND TURBINE

This study treat the effect of the Suction method as a way of the boundary layer controlling in order to avoid or at least delay the boundary layer separation and to explain the effectiveness of this method in improving the aerodynamic performance of the Airfoils of the studied wind turbine blade and thus the possibility of obtaining better electrical output of the wind turbine, that is performance improving of wind turbines and obtains a better design.
