In this research, the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approaches using ANSYS Fluent solver was employed to evaluate new designs of the delta-shaped bladed Darrieus hydrokinetic turbines (DHKT) employing NACA0012 hydrofoils. The 2-bladed models with four different designs (MD1-MD4) of varying blad...
