Fluid-Structure Interaction Simulation of Wind Turbine

Article Preview

Abstract:

The model of wind turbine was created by CATIA software, and then the simulation for blades and wind field was conducted by ANSYS software. The phenomena, such as tip vortex of blade, center vortex, and spiral trailing edge vortex caused by the rotating wind turbine, were presented explicitly and the pressure distribution of wind field was obtained. This paper provides some guiding significance to the arrangement of wind turbine and the studies about loading, deformation, and stress of blades.
