This thesis presents a methodology of two-dimensional airfoil simulation focusing on its application on the design and optimization of blades and rotors of small horizontal axis wind turbines, and its application in a set of numerical simulations involving high rotor solidity and low-Re effects. This methodology includes grid generation, selection of numerical methods and validation, reflecting the most successful practices in airfoil simulation, and was applied in the simulation of the NACA 0012, S809 and SD7062 airfoils. The ANSYS Fluent commercial code was used in all simulations. Results for the isolated NACA 0012 and S809 airfoils at high Reynolds numbers show that the Transition SST (γ-Reθ) turbulence model produces results closer to ...
