Abstract

In view of the requirements to access the wind energy efficiently, a model of three bladed horizontal axis wind turbine is to develop and analyse for its aerodynamic efficiency by considering an idealized wind turbine rotor. The model for rotor hub is also developed for structural analysis. This study introduces important concepts and illustrates the general behavior of wind turbine rotors and the airflow around wind turbine rotors. The analysis is also used to determine theoretical performance limits for wind turbines. This study includes increase the efficiency or power coefficient of horizontal axis wind turbine rotor, to carry out performance analysis and power prediction of horizontal axis wind turbine, Comparison of power prediction with an existing turbine, Structural design of wind turbine rotor components like blade and hub, Create an efficient finite element model with enough elements for accurate modelling of minimization the stresses and deflection in rotor and compared with an existing design.
