Wind Blade Analysis Problem Specification

Created using ANSYS 2020 R1

...

(Tutorial Name)

Recommended Version: ANSYS (Version number it was made with) or later

Learning Goals

In this tutorial, you will learn how to:

• (e.g.: Determine the displacements and stresses in a bike crank using 3D FEA capabilities in ANSYS Mechanical)
• (e.g.: Verify the finite-element results from ANSYS by refining the mesh and also comparing with hand calculations)

Problem Specification

• Develop a CFD solution for  wind turbine rotor using ANSYS Fluent
• Develop a a 3D mesh, solve for the flow field, and plot results

Problem Specification

This tutorial shows you how to simulate the flow around a given “standard” wind turbine rotor using Ansys Fluent.  The rotor geometry is shown in the figure below. The hub is neglected for simplicity since it doesn't contribute to the power generated by the rotor. Only one blade is considered in the simulation set-up by using periodic boundary conditions. The simulation yields the velocity and pressure fields around the blade and the power generated.
