Abstract

With the development of the modern society, new energy technology has a great potential to be the new driving force. In order to make full use of the wind energy in the high air, based on CFD method, using the commercial software FLUENT and the standard k- turbulence model, an axial-flow wind turbine was designed on its structure and simulated with its inner flow field, also the pressure and velocity contours were obtained and the noise evaluation was considered. The results show that for the axial-flow wind turbine, setting the appropriate blade installation angle can be helpful for blade to bear balanced pressure and for air to flow steadly, which offers references to reduce noise and prolong the life of the blade in the industral application.
