Research of Wind Shear Dynamic Characteristics of Wind Wheels

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to accurately analysis the aerodynamic characteristic variations of wind turbines under shear, the influence of axial and shear on the aerodynamic characteristic of a horizontal-axis wind turbine is simulated in this paper by using a sliding grid method based on FlowVision. By using the TJÆREBORG wind turbine as the object of study, a three-dimensional model of a uniform wind flow can be created. The CFD calculation results, the experimental results and the Bladed results can be used to confirm the reliability of the model. In order to investigate the effect of wind shear with regard to three-dimensional unsteady flow characteristics and a three-dimensional flow field in a wind turbine impeller, an analysis of wheel wind speed of 11m/s and an investigation of the influence of wind shear on turbine performance are carried out.
