Background.
In order to investigate the effect of aerodynamic characteristics of S series airfoils on the straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine (SB-VAWT), numerical simulations and wind tunnel experiments were carried out using a small SB-VAWT model with three kinds of blade airfoils, which are asymmetric airfoil S809, symmetric airfoil S1046, and NACA0018 used for performance comparison among S series.
The aerodynamics characteristics researched in this study included static torque coefficient, out power coefficient, and rotational speed performance.
The flow fields of these three kinds of blade under static and dynamic conditions were also simulated and analyzed to explain the mechanism effect of aerodynamic performance.
According to the results, the SB-VAWT with airfoil S1046 has better dynamic aerodynamic characteristics than other two airfoils, while the SB-VAWT with airfoil S809 is better in terms of the static characteristics.
As the most suitable airfoil for SB-VAWT, the S series airfoil is worth researching deeply.
