D.1 Profile shape<br />

The NACA 4412 airfoil profile shape in each blade element is described as a function of the<br />

local chord length via geometrical data found in [50]. The rotor design tool uses the data to<br />

describe the airfoil shape with 102 Cartesian coordinates per element, as shown on figure<br />

The coordinate data, which is provided as att. 9, is further used as shape coordinates in the<br />

3D CAD model of the blades.<br />
