CFD ANALYSIS OF THE AIR FLOW AROUND THE BLADES OF THE VERTICAL AXIS WIND TURBINE
Journal Title: Journal of Technology and Exploitation in Mechanical Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper presents the results of calculations of flow around the vertical axis wind turbine. Threedimensional calculations were performed using ANSYS Fluent. They were made at steady-state conditions for a wind speed of 3 m/s for 4 angular settings of the three-bladed rotor. The purpose of the calculations was to determine the values of the aerodynamic forces acting on the individual blades and to present the pressure contours on the surface of turbine rotor blades. The calculations were made for 4 rotor angular settings.
