This paper investigates the effect of profile-modifications on a NACA-0015 aerofoil used in VAWTs (vertical axis wind … at the lower surface of the NACA-0015 aerofoil. Rather than maximize the lift-coefficient or the ratio of the lift to … the CFD simulations are validated against previous experimental results. The optimized shape of the modified aerofoil is …
