Abstract

In this study, energy performance and aerodynamic forces acted on a vertical-axis Darrieus wind turbine(VAWT) have been examined by using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program. Numerical investigation isconducted on a blade fixed pitch VAWT using NACA0021, NACA0015, NACA5520 and Clark-Y airfoils as a bladeprofile to assess its performance, and these four airfoils were compared with each other’s. Numerical simulation isdone for two-dimensional unsteady flow around the VAWT model by using Ansys-Fluent program which solvesReynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations. Considered numerical results, NACA5520 can be employed to generatefirst movement; in addition, the maximum average power coefficient has been obtained for NACA0021.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, dikey eksenli bir rüzgar (DERT) türbini üzerine uygulanan aerodinamik kuvvetler ve enerji performansı, hesaplamalı akışkanlar dinamiği (HAD) programı kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Sayısal araştırma, NACA0021, NACA0015, NACA5520 ve CLARK-Y kanat profillerini kullanmak üzere, rüzgar türbinin performansını değerlendirmek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiş ve bu dört kanat profili birbirleri ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Ansys-Fluent programı, Reynolds ortalamalı Navier-Stokes denklemlerini çözerek, DERT etrafındaki iki boyutlu kararsız akışı simule etmede kullanılmıştır. Sayısal sonuçlar göz önüne alındığında, NACA5520 kanat profili ilk hareketi sağlamak için kullanılabilirken, buna ek olarak ortalama olarak en yüksek güç katsayısı değeri NACA0021 profilinde elde edilmiştir.
