WinBlade 를 이용한 수평축 풍력터빈 유동-구조 해석 자동화

Renewable energy has been actively studied as the new energy sources to replace fossil fuels recently. Among them, the wind energy is evenly distributed in the worldwide comparing to other renewable energy. The main parts of the horizontal axis wind turbine among the various wind turbine system are a turbine blade, main shaft, and tower. Design and simulation analysis can be very important role to evaluate the performance and structural stability of the wind turbine. However, the software of component design, system design and simulation is mostly dependent on the oversea products in Korea. Therefore, the design and simulation software developed on domestic is required at this time. For this reason, WinBlade was developed to be able to conduct the design and simulation of main components of wind turbine without expert knowledge. The objective in this paper is automation of design and simulation of main components of wind turbine using WinBlade.
