Abstract

This study is focused on the shape design and flow analysis on a 200 W-class Gyromill type vertical axis wind turbine rotor blade. Single tube theory is adopted for the shape design of the turbine blade. 2-dimensional CFD analysis is conducted to examine the turbine performance with basic shape, and then 3-dimensional shape is determined from the examination of the performance. By the CFD analysis on the 3-dimensional shape of the wind turbine, performance of the turbine is examined and also, shape of the wind turbine rotor blade is determined accordingly. From the results of this study, a 200 W-class Gyromill type vertical axis wind turbine rotor blade is designed and the reliability of the design method is confirmed by CFD analysis.
