Blade shape optimization of the Savonius wind turbine using a genetic algorithm

•GA is incorporated into CFD for the optimization of Savonius wind turbine’s blades.•33% improvement in power coefficient is observed for turbine with optimal blades.•Turbine with optimal blades outperforms conventional one at a wide range of TSR. The Savonius wind turbine is one of the best candida...
