Abstract:The demand for renewable energy sources has made wind turbines a popular choice for generating electricity. The vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) is an attractive option due to its compact size, easy maintenance, and ability to operate at low wind speeds. In this project, we aim to design and analyze a VAWT that can efficiently harness wind power and generate electricity.The project involves several steps, including choosing the appropriate design, selecting the materials, determining the optimal blade geometry, and testing the turbine's performance. Key considerations include wind conditions at the installation site, power output requirements, and material selection. The geometry of 2D vertical axis wind turbine is done with SolidWorks then ANSYS will be used to do fluid analysis on this 2D turbine using the sliding mesh and Ansys result will be used to generate coefficient of power vs. tip ratio diagram. We select NACA 0021 type wind turbine blade design for project.
