In the present study, a 3D parametric gas turbine blade geometry building code, 3DBGB, has been modified in order to include wind turbine design capabilities.

NUMECA International corporate headquarter is loca-ted in Brussels, with offices, resellers and service centers in USA, Germany, France, Russia, Italy, Spain, Poland, Japan, China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea. AutoBlade™ is an advanced and easy-to-use 3D para.

This approach enables greater flexibility of the design along with the ability to design more complex geometries with relative ease. The NREL NASA Phase VI wind turbine was considered as a test case for validation and as a baseline by which modified designs could be compared. The design parameters were translated into 3DBGB input to create a 3D model of the wind turbine which can also be imported into any CAD program. Design modifications included replacing the airfoil section and modifying the thickness to chord ratio as a function of span. These models were imported into a high-fidelity CFD package, Fine/TURBO by NUMECA.

Fine/TURBO is a specialized CFD platform for turbo-machinery analysis. A code-geomturbo was used to convert the 3D model of the wind turbine into the native format used to define geometries in the Fine/TURBO meshing tool, AutoGrid. The CFD results were post processed using a 3D force analysis code. The radial force variations were found to play a measurable role in the performance of wind turbine blades. The radial component of the blade surface area as it varies in span is the dominant contributor of the radial forces. Through the radial momentum equation, this radial force variation is responsible for creating the streamline curvature that leads to the expansion of the streamtube (slipstream) that is responsible for slowing the wind velocity ahead of the wind turbine leading edge, which is quantified as the axial induction factor.

T(DB)Planner – New: Planner.Items.SelectAll method added When Planner.MultiSelect = true, all items can now be set in selected state programmatically with the method Planner.Items.SelectAll. TAdvGridFilterPanel – New: OnAppliedFiter, OnRemovedFilter, OnRestoredFilter events added Extra events are added that are triggered after each of the filter, clear filter, load filter is done in the grid filter panel to enable to do appropriate actions after the filtering is updated.

These same radial forces also play a role in changing the slipstream for propellers. Through the design modifications, simulated with CFD and post-processed appropriately, this connection with the radial component of area to the radial forces to the axial induction factor, and finally the wind turbine power is demonstrated. The results from the CFD analysis and 3D force analysis are presented. For the case presented, the power increases by 5.6% due to changes in airfoil thickness only.
