This paper describes the prediction of aerodynamic performance and wake of HAWT in normal and yawed flow operation using potential based methods. In order to analyze aerodynamic performance of wind turbine WINFAS program is used, which is based on VLM(Vortex Lattice Method) and CVC(Constant vorticity contour) Free wake model. Some problems of CVC vortex filament method are investigated arid to improve these problems vortex ring wake are introduced in behalf of CVC vortex filament. The prediction results using the vortex lattice wake are compared to experimental data.
