The steam turbine rotor blade is designed using the Turbine Rotor Design Package developed by the authors. It can quickly accomplish blade shape design in the power plant industry. The quasi-3d code is employed for analysis of passage flow in the blade sections. Iterative change of each blade shape is made by moving position of control points in the Bezier curve under GUI(graphic user interface) environment. The full 3-D blade shape is obtained by stacking of the section blades.

Stationary and rotating blades can be found in a steam turbine generator and the airfoil shapes of these blades can be defined by point data from an aerodynamic design system. The main design process of blades is composed of two steps: first, the blade surface is modeled with the point data; and then, the section data is generated which contains composite curves with line segments and arcs for CAE of the blade. The surface is modeled by a curve-net defined by the point data, which may be extended to obtain the section data to model the blade. This paper presents methods for automating the above-mentioned steps, which have been implemented in the commercial CAD/CAM system, Unigraphics, with API functions written in C-language. Finally, the proposed methods have been applied to model the blade of a steam turbine generator.

In wind turbine blades, airfoils are required to have different spec when compared with airplane airfoil. Airfoils for wind turbine blade must have a high lift-to-drag ratio, moderate to high lift and especially low roughness sensitivity. Also an operation Re. No.s are lower than conventional airplane airfoils. At mid-span and inboard region, structural problems have to be considered. Especially, for stall regulated type, moderate stall behavior is essential part of design. For these reasons, airfoil design for HAWT blade is essential part of blade design. In this paper, root airfoil and tip airfoil are discussed. For a root region, 24% thickness airfoil is designed and for a top region, 12% thickness ratio is done. A inverse design method and panel method are used for rapid airfoil design. In this paper, a design method, features of airfoil shape and characteristics are discussed.

Since large-scale commercial wind turbine generator systems such as MW-class wind turbines are becoming widely operated, the vibration and distortion of the blade are becoming larger and larger. Therefore the soft structure design instead of the solid-design is one of the important concepts to reduce the structural load and the cost of the wind turbine rotors. The objectives of the study are development of the fluid-structure coupled analysis code and evaluation of soft rotor-blade design to reduce the unsteady structural blade load. In this paper, fluid-structure coupled analysis for the HAWT rotor blade is performed by free wake panel method coupled with hinge-spring blade model for the flapwise blade motion. In the model, the continuous deflection of the rotor blade is represented by flapping angle of the hinge with one degree of freedom. The calculation results are evaluated by comparison with the database of the NREL unsteady aerodynamic experiment. In the analysis the unsteady flapwise moments in yawed inflow conditions are compared for the blades with different flapwise eigen frequencies.

This paper describes the design, analysis and manufacture procedure of the composite blade for hingeless rotor system of unmanned helicopters. Helicopter rotor system is the key structural unit that produces thrust and control forces for intended flight conditions. In this work, a hingeless rotor system is adopted, and base on the design requirements for rotor system, composite blade section design and calculation of material properties were performed. In order to avoid the unstable state such as resonance, vibration characteristics of rotor system were analyzed. Finally, this paper describes simply the forming and manufacture of composite blade.

A die cast impeller blade has been developed in the effort on cost reduction in marine equipment industry. The purpose of this work is to optimize the die casting process using Taguchi's design of experiment for minimizing the internal defect of the die cast impeller blade. The experiments were preformed using the numerical simulation based on the L18 orthogonal array. As a results, the internal defect size of the die cast impeller blade for optimal design was controlled less than 1mm.

This research presents results of structural designs and evaluations for 3MW Wind Turbine Blade by FEM analysis. After the GFRP model was designed as a baseline model, failure check by Puck's failure criterion and buckling analysis were accomplished to verify safety of wind turbine blade in the critical design load case. Moreover, applicability of two kinds of carbon spar cap model, was studied by comparing total mass, price and tip deflection to the GFRP model. The results showed that the GFRP model had sufficient structural integrity in the critical design load case, and the carbon spar cap model could be a reasonable solution to reduce weights, tip deflections.

The aims of this study is to realize the structural design for development of a medium scale E-glass/epoxy composite wind turbine blade for a 750KW class horizontal axis wind turbine system. In this study, the various load cases specified by the IEC61400-1 international specification and GL Regulations for the wind energy conversion system were considered, and a specific composite structure configuration which can effectively endure various loads such as aerodynamic and centrifugal loads, loads due to accumulation of ice, hygro-thermal and mechanical loads was proposed. In order to evaluate the structure, the structural analysis for the composite wind turbine blade were peformed using tile finite element method(FEM). In the structural design, the acceptable blade structural configuration was determined through the parametric studies, and the most dominant design parameters were confirmed. In the stress analysis using the FEM, it was confirmed that the blade structure was safe and stable in any various load cases Moreover the safety of the blade root joint with insert bolts, newly devised in this study, was checked against the design fond and the fatigue.
