Wind turbine cfd simulation
Description:
Wind turbine also known as a wind energy converter operates by using kinetic energy of the wind. It basically converts kinetic energy of the wind into electrical energy. Wind turbines are modern version of classic windmills. Wind turbines can be used as a clean energy source to beat air pollution. B

ut in order to do so wind turbines must be efficient. Simulation can be an important tool in analyzing e.g. effect of air interaction with turbine blades and making the turbines more efficient. This is transient (time dependent) simulation of wind turbine using ANSYS CFX. Turbulence model employed is scale adaptive simulation (SAS). Total simulation time is around 4 sec with time step size of 0.005 sec. Finest mesh used for this simulation has around 50 million cells. Software used for simulation is ANSYS CFX.
