The performance analysis for NREL Phase VI Blade with blunt airfoil

Blunt airfoil를 이용한 Phase VI Blade의 성능변화

This study focus on the performance of blade with blunt airfoil which used at root region on Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD). Based on the Phase VI had experiment by NREL, the experiment condition is also used for the performance of blade with the airfoil that trailing edge is changed. The thickness of airfoil trailing edge 1% and 5% is substituted for original airfoil. This study was progressing to calculate the pressure coefficient and torque from the effect on each airfoil according to difference of the thickness.
