| description |
Wind turbines are considered as a renewable energy technologies which have the potential
to reduce environmental pollutions from conventional energy sources. Currently, many research activities
have concentrated on improving and modifying the aerodynamic performances of wind turbine blades
through wind tunnel testing and complicated computational investigations (like CFD). In the present
research, a freely available wind turbine simulation software called QBlade is used, which is computationally
inexpensive for performance and design analyses of wind turbines. In the present research, performance
analysis of a smaller-capacity horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) with QBlade have been conducted. After
validating the obtained results with existing experimental results, comparative performance study have been
conducted using three airfoils. |
