Something to keep in mind, when you want to know something about how the prop of a wind turbine works, is that it's not too different from an aeroplane propeller.  It just points in the opposite direction.  The thing about airplanes: people write about 1000 times more about airplanes than wind turbines.  Sources of information about aircraft propellers abound!

Just a few good links, among thousands, depending on your expertise:
