Darrieus vertical axis wind turbine flow analysis for different velocities

Izvršena je 2D analiza strujanja zraka kroz Darrieusovu vjetroturbinu s tri lopatice pomoću CFD programa Ansys Fluent. Uspoređene su vrijednosti brzina i tlakova kroz turbinu pri brzinama strujanja vjetra od 3.5, 6, 9 i 12 m/s. Simulacije su izvršene u stacionarnom stanju, pri različitim položajima zakreta turbine.A 2D analysis of air flow through a Darrieus three-bladed wind turbine was performed using the Ansys Fluent CFD software. The values of velocities and pressures through the turbine were compared at wind speeds of 3.5, 6, 9 and 12 m/s. Simulations were carried out in a stationary state, at different positions of the turbine blades
