- Description
- When the forces act on a bluff body in the wind flow direction, vortices are formed. Vortex bladeless wind turbine oscillates as a result of the vortices generated due to VIV. When the vortex shedding frequency is nearer to the natural frequency of the structure, maximum amplitude of vibration occurs and coincidentally power is generated. 3D models are designed to stimulate flow at a Reynolds number of 50000. This paper focuses on modelling the bladeless wind turbine based on semi-vortex angle and also 1) to study the vortices pattern and vorticity of different models 2) to study the drag and lift coefficients. In this paper vortex turbine is designed with certain parameters of dimension in Solid Edge and CFD analysis is carried out in Simscale software. Different model performance parameters like power, natural frequency and coefficient of power are compared among different models to opt for the best vortex bladeless wind turbine design. 2022 Author(s).
