안테나 결합형 수직 풍력터빈의 에어포일 분석에 관한 연구

Abstract

In this paper, we design and verify a system that combines a mobile communication base station antenna with a vertical wind turbine. The airfoil shape of the straight blade was applied to NACA0012, NACA0015, and NACA0018. The performance was verified by computational fluid dynamics using the k-epsilon turbulent model of ANSYS CFX. We calculated torque by CFD calculation and predicted power output. The performance of the wind turbine and the torque and power output when the antenna was added were compared. Steady analysis was performed at wind speed of 6 ~ 12 m/s and 100 ~ 500 rpm. NACA0018 is high when the rotation speed is low, and NACA0012 is high when the rotation speed is low. Overall performance is highest when NACA0018 is applied.
