Abstract
The objective of this paper is to develop 360 W class wind turbine tree using a helical type wind turbine. The performance of 100 W class helical wind turbine which finished the conceptual design has been forecast through the CFD analysis. After performed the analysis of one wind turbine performance, four wind turbine have been installed at the structure of a tree type and then the change of a output data has been verified through the CFD analysis. In this study, the CFD results of a helical wind turbine tree have been shown by a velocity and pressure distribution. The result could obtain more than rated power 360 W through the CFD analysis.
