Abstract

In this paper, savonius type vertical wind turbine designed. Velocity and pressure distributions of the surrounding air are investigated numerically. The turbine is positioned at four different angles: 0°, 45°, 90° and 135°. For each angular position, velocity and pressure distribution graphs were obtained at wind speeds of 3 m/s, 6 m/s and 9 m/s. The maximum air velocity was 21.33 m/s for 9 m/s (0°). For all pressure plots the maximum pressure was determined to be 86.36 Pa at 0° and 45°.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, savonius tipi dikey rüzgâr türbini tasarlanmış ve çevresindeki havanın hız ve basınç dağılımı sayısal olarak incelenmiştir. Türbinin 0°, 45°, 90° ve 135° olmak üzere dört farklı açıda konumlandırılmıştır. Her açısal konum için 3 m/s, 6 m/s ve 9 m/s rüzgâr hızı ve basınç dağılımı grafikleri elde edilmiştir. En büyük hava hızı 9 m/s (0°) için kanat çevresinde en fazla hız 21,33 m/s olarak elde edilmiştir. Tüm basınç grafikleri için en yüksek basınç 0° ve 45° de 86,36 Pa olarak tespit edilmiştir.
