导叶对涡轮型垂直轴风力机气动性能的影响

摘要

To overcome the problem of low efficiency of the traditional vertical axis wind turbine, the structural advantages of the wind turbine with guiding vanes are introduced and the effects of guiding vanes on the vortex vertical axis wind turbine are analyzed in detail. Based on computational fluid dynamics theory, the slippage mesh technique and the k-ε model were used to compare the aerodynamic performance of the vortex vertical axis wind turbine with and without guiding vanes at a design velocity of 12 m/s. Studies have shown that the guiding vanes can effectively prevent the direct impact of the coming flow from acting on the suction section of the blade in the upwind area so as to decrease the drag torque, while the guiding vanes also negatively affect the performance of blades in the downwind area, but the positive effect of the former is more significant, so the performance of a wind turbine with guiding vanes greatly improves. The vortex vertical axis wind turbine with arc-type guiding vanes has a wider operating range, higher optimum tip speed ratio, and higher aerodynamic efficiency. The maximum wind power coefficient can reach 0.24 .%针对传统垂直轴风力机效率低的缺陷,阐述带导叶垂直轴风力机的结构优势,并分析导叶对涡轮型垂直轴风力机的作用。应用计算流体力学理论,在设计风速12 m/s下,采用滑移网格技术及k-着模型对有、无导叶两种涡轮型垂直轴风力机的气动性能进行比较。研究表明,导叶可以有效降低由于来流对逆风区叶片吸力面的直接冲击而造成的阻力扭矩,也会负面影响顺风区叶片的性能,但其负作用效果远不及在逆风区挡流降阻的正作用效果,故加导叶后风轮的性能会有很大提高。带弧线形导叶涡轮型垂直轴风力机最大风能利用系数可达0.24,具有工作范围广、最佳尖速比大的特点。
