Multivariate Design and Optimization of the AeroMINE Internal Turbine Blade
AIAA Propulsion and Energy Forum, 2021
Multivariate designs using three optimization procedures were performed on a low Reynolds number (order 100,000) turbine blade that maximized lift over drag. The turbine blade was created to interface to AeroMINE, a novel wind energy harvester that has no external moving parts. To speed up the optimization process, an interpolation-based procedure using the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method was used. This method was used in two ways: by itself (POD-i) and as an initial guess to a full-order model (FOM) solution that is truncated before it reaches full convergence (POD-i with truncated FOM). To compare the result of these methods and their efficiency, optimization using a FOM was also conducted. It was found that there exists a trade off between efficiency and optimal result. The FOM found the highest L/D of 28.87 while POD-i found a L/D of 16.19 and POD-i with truncated FOM found a L/D of 19.11. Nonetheless, POD-i and POD-i with truncated FOM were 32,302 and 697 times faster than the FOM, respectively.

In its simplest implementation, patent-protected AeroMINE consists of two opposing foils, where a low-pressure zone is generated between them. The low pressure draws fluid through orifices in the foil surfaces from plenums inside the foils. The inner plenums are connected to ambient pressure. If an internal turbine-generator is placed in the path of the flow to the plenums, energy can be extracted. The fluid transports the energy through the plenums, and the turbine-generator can be located at ground level, inside a controlled environment for easy access and to avoid inclement weather conditions or harsh environments. This contained internal turbine-generator has the only moving parts in the system, isolated from people, birds and other wildlife. AeroMINEs could be used in distributed-wind energy settings, where the stationary foil pairs are located on warehouse rooftops, for example. Flow created by several such foil pairs could be combined to drive a common turbine-generator.
