Abstract

A flow control on airfoil installed a vortex cell for high efficiency wind turbine blade in stationary and dynamic stall conditions have been numerically investigated by solving the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The numerical scheme is based on a node-based finite-volume method with Roe's flux-difference splitting and an implicit time-integration method coupled with dual time step sub-iteration. The computed result for the airfoil in the stationary showed that lift-drag ratio increases due to low pressure by the vortex cell. The oscillating airfoil with the vortex cell showed that the magnitude of hysteresis loop is reduced due to the enhanced vortex in the cell.

높은 효율의 풍력터빈 블레이드을 위해 와류 셀이 장착된 에어포일의 정지상태 및 동실 속 상태에서의 유동제어 특성을 수치적으로 연구하였다. 수치기법은 Roe의 flux-difference-splitting을 사용한 격자점 중심 유한체적법과 이중시간 전진 기법을 사용하는 내재적 시간적분법을 사용하였다. 계산결과 와류 셀을 장착한 경우 셀 내부의 부압으로 인해 양항비증가를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다. 동실속의 경우 셀 내부의 와류에 의해 hysterisis 현상을 상당히 감소시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다.
