In this paper the geometric properties and aerodynamic performance for some typical wind turbine airfoils are reviewed and then the leading edge roughness effects for every airfoil are discussed in detail.Based on a new airfoil representing function,assigns the weighted value of lift-drag ratio on smooth and roughness working condition as the optimum objective function,a new wind turbine dedicated airfoil with the thickness of 24.7% has been designed.The lift,drag and lift-drag ratio performances have been studied on the new airfoil.Different working condition characteristics of this new airfoil have also been analyzed.The new airfoil was found to be very insensitive to leading edge roughness and turbulent flow.And the airfoil showed a very good on-design and off-design operational condition characteristics.The high Reynolds number and three-dimensional rotation effects can improve the performance of the new wind turbine airfoil.
