In this paper, a 2-D numerical simulation of the wind turbine S825 airfoil is conducted with Spalart-Allmaras (SA) turbulence model at different attack angles.
As the spirit of RANS, turbulence model is one of the key elements and a weakness in CFD for engineering [3,4].
The Spalart-Allmaras (SA) turbulence model is widely used in engineering CFD due to its simplicity, robustness and efficiency [5].
When the attack angle is greater than 13 deg, the deviation between the numerical simulation and experiment is obvious because of the separation flow.
Conclusion Numerical simulation for wind turbine airfoil S825 is performed by CFD software Fluent 6.3.26.
