This study presents newly developed charts to aid in early design of impulse turbine for wave energy extraction. These …. The novel approach is applied in a case study that considers the optimum diameter design selection of next …-generation impulse turbine power take-off. This allowed the selection of the correct impulse turbine sizing for a required rated power …

approximation, radial basis function, Kriging and weighted average surrogates were incorporated in this problem. Same design points …. Numbers of guide vanes and rotor blades were chosen as the design variables, and the objective was to maximize the blade …

In this paper a detailed sizing method of stand-alone Photovoltaic–Wind hybrid systems is proposed and evaluated by the … design and the development of flexible software basing on techno-economic analysis and using Object-Oriented Programming …. First, a short review of the different sizing programs is given after, a detailed sizing methodology for PV–Wind systems is …
