본 연구에서는 한국과 같이 비교적 저 풍속인 지역에 적용 가능하도록 피치제어장치를 가진 1kW급 소형 풍력발전 시스템의 개발 결과를 제시하였다. 공력설계에서는 블레이드의 직경이 동급의 상용 블레이드 보다 과도하게 크지 않으면서도 저 풍속 지역에서 보다 효율적인 형상설계를 위해 여러 가지 설계 변수분석을 통한 파라미터 연구가 수행되었다. 또한 구조설계를 통해 풍력발전기에 작용하는 다양한 하중을 효과적으로 견딜 수 있는 경량의 복합재 구조가 설계되었다. 구조설계의 평가를 위해 유한요소 구조해석이 수행되었으며, 실물 구조시험을 수행하여 구조적 안전성을 확인하였다.

A numerical method and experiments for the aerodynamic design of high performance two-stage axial flow fans was carried out. A vortex ring element method used for the aerodynamic analysis of the propellers was extended to the fan-duct system. Fan Performance and velocity profiles at the fan inlet and outlet are compared with experimental data for the validations of numerical method. Performance test was done based on KS B 6311(testing methods for turbo-fans and blowers). The velocity profile was obtained using a 5-hole pitot tube by the non-nulling method. The two stage axial flow fan configurations for the optimal operation conditions were set by using the experimental results for the single rotating axial flow fan and the single stage axial flow fan. The single rotating axial flow fan showed relatively low efficiency due to the swirl velocities behind rotor exit which produced pressure losses. In contrast, the single stage and the two-stage axial flow fans showed performance improvements due to the swirl velocity reduction by the stator. The peak efficiency of the two stage axial flow fan was improved by 21% and 6%, compared to the single rotating axial flow fan and the single stage axial flow fan, respectively.
