This steady-state 1-way FSI (Fluid-Structure Interaction analysis that uses Fluent+Mechanical) example considers the deformation due to aerodynamic loading of a wind turbine blade. The blade is 27m long with a rotational velocity of 2.43 rad/s. The upstream wind speed is 8 m/s. The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is performed using ANSYS Fluent to develop the aerodynamic loading on the blade (Part 1 of this tutorial). The pressure on the wetted areas of the blades are the passed as a pressure load in ANSYS Mechanical which performs the Computational Structural Mechanics (CSM) to determine stresses and deformations on the blade (Part 2 of this tutorial).
