Manufacturing of Proto Type Wind Turbine Blades Using Rapid Prototype Technology
Journal Title: International Journal of Mechanical and Production Engineering Research and Development (IJMPERD ) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 2
Abstract
All over the world, the wind energy has numerous benefits in helping to provide a source of clean and renewable electricity. For greater use of wind energy, the research efforts are aimed at addressing the challenge. The main objective of the project is to develop wind turbine blade model using CAD tool Autodesk inventor and Flash forge finder 3D printer for without twist and with various twist angles of 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150. 2D and 3D data can be easily integrated with Autodesk inventor software in a single digital model to create a virtual representation of the final product. The wind turbine blades are fabricated through 3D printing technology otherwise known as additive manufacturing process. The aim of this paper is to give an overview of this relatively infant technology, its diverse applications such as wind turbine industries for manufacturing prototype model to explain the development of new blade design
