Abstract

The objective of this study is to investigate the aerodynamic characteristics of a small vertical axis wind turbine with dual blade type. The Wind turbine with dual blade has various angle of attack. so this turbine improve starting characteristics. The various arrangement of the vertical axis wind turbine with dual blade is designed. Among them, it shows superior quality that is arranged in three rows. Among arrangement in three rows, we use general computational fluid dynamics program CFX to find out the optimal arrangement. By comparing the predicted results of the aerodynamic characteristics of the different arrangement of the blades, an appropriate arrangement of the blade is suggested to design the small wind turbine blade.
