Simulation of Micro Wind Turbine Blade in QBlade

Abstract

This paper consists of design and optimization of micro (less than 1 KW) wind turbine blades at rated wind speed 8.4 m/s. SG6043 airfoil is selected as it gives maximum lift coefficient of 1.63. Simulation of blade length of 1.2m is done by using Q-blade software and optimized values of chord length and twist angle at each respective section are calculated by mat lab programming. Multiple parameter BEM simulation is done in Q-blade and graphs of ࢖࡯and power is plotted against tip speed ratio. While considering the rotor radius flange, hub and shaft radius is considered in it. Maximum value of power coefficient ( )࢖࡯at rated wind speed of 8.4 m/s is observed to be 0.45 in Q-blade simulation.
