A wind turbine system 100 is presented. The wind turbine 100 includes a blade 104, 106 comprising an airfoil 300 and a sensing device 110, 112, 114, 116, 118 disposed on a surface of the airfoil 300, wherein the sensing device 110, 112, 114, 116, 118 generates signals 122 that are representative of pressure deflection 204 on the surface of the airfoil 300. Furthermore, the wind turbine system 100 further includes a processing subsystem 124 that receives location details 126 of the sensing device 110, 112, 114, 116, 118 and a transfer function corresponding to the airfoil 300, determines a location of a stagnation point 212 on the surface of the airfoil 300 based upon the signals 122 and the location details 126, and determines an angle of attack (AOA) on the surface of the airfoil 300 based upon the location of the stagnation point 212 and the transfer function 130. |
