Parametric study of an empty diffuser geometric parameters and shape for a wind turbine using CFD analysis

This research examines the optimal 3D geometric parameters and shape of empty diffusers to enhance the mass flow rate of the HAWT rotor plane using a detailed parametric study. Previous works have investigated the use of diffusers to augment turbine power output; however, different curvature surfaces and the effects of all associated angles have not been considered for a thorough evaluation. This work mainly focuses on analyzing the effect of opening angles
