摘要
At present, there are many different types of airfoils that have been used in lift-type vertical axis wind turbines. In order to study the influence of different airfoils on the lift-type vertical axis wind turbine performance, two-dimensional numerical simulation of flow around a Darrieus-type straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbine was conducted in this paper with the aid of computational fluid dynamics software and sliding mesh method. Numerical results suggest that NACA0018 airfoil is the most suitable airfoil section used by a lift-type vertical axis wind turbine rotors as it can allow the wind turbine to achieve the highest wind energy utilization efficiency.
